Buzzed Buds is a consumer experience and education-focused cannabis retail brand, founded in August 2020. Buzzed Buds Uxbridge opened for business in May 2021, amidst the height of the global pandemic. Despite the countless obstacles and challenges stemming from public health measures and industry stigma, Buzzed Buds has now opened six successful retail locations in Uxbridge, Pickering, Woodview, ByWard market Ottawa, Toronto Beaches, and our newest location at Yonge & Lawrence in Toronto. Buzzed Buds differentiates from the competition in three ways; proprietary pricing model, lean operatingframework, and exceptional in-store experience. The Buzzed Buds pricing model allows us to maintain pricing competitive with, or better than, large corporations with huge financial backings. Our lean operating framework ensures our customers receive the highest quality, freshest product and optimizes free cash flow. Our in-store experience is education-focused with a goal of fostering meaningful customer-budtender interactions that promote confident purchasing decisions and customer loyalty.My job is to ensure that Buzzed Buds is positioned for success in the face of an over-saturated and compressed legal market. Our continued growth demonstrates our ability to compete with large corporations through our true understanding of the cannabis consumer. We are currently looking to expand the reach of our brand in Ontario by continuing organic, corporate growth. Buzzed Buds also looks to expand into the US market through California, with a goal of operating on both sides of the Canadian-US border.
