"For some time now, our loyal ELITE and Cabana Club members have been asking for an improved online experience, and we've heard that feedback loud and clear. That's why I am so thrilled to announce the re-launch of our next-gen Canna Cabana website. Our newly enhanced website boasts a sleek, modern design that prioritizes user experience, offering intuitive navigation and visually engaging content. Every element of this new website has been meticulously crafted to ensure that our online presence will exceed member expectations, reflecting our commitment to quality and innovation," said Raj Grover, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide.
"While our winning and disruptive discount club model has made our retail stores so successful, even though many of our large competitors have either filed for bankruptcy protection or fallen by the wayside completely, we are adding additional bench strength to our already all-star lineup by revamping our online presence. These enhancements are the first steps in a broader transformation of High Tide's e-commerce ecosystem that will align all Company platforms with the Cabana Club and help us to extend our reach to those who prefer the convenience of shopping from the comfort of their own home. I want to give a huge shout out to our team for achieving this goal on an expedited timeline. I look forward to announcing further innovations to our broader e-commerce ecosystem soon. Stay tuned," added Mr. Grover.
