VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Jan. 29, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Choom™ (CSE: CHOO; OTCQB: CHOOF), one of Canada’s leading recreational cannabis retailers, is pleased to announce the opening of its latest retail location in the Yaletown neighborhood of Vancouver, B.C. (1391 Richards Street, Vancouver V6B 3G7). The brand currently has 15 locations operational across Alberta, Ontario, and B.C, with ambitious expansion plans through 2024.

“It’s an exciting start to 2021 for Choom, we are seeing the expansion of our brand in our hometown of Vancouver,” said Corey Gillon, CEO of Choom. “We continue to see the brand come to life, through the tireless efforts of our team. Choom is staying true to our vision; providing a best-in-class retail cannabis experience to every client, in every market we serve.”

With a proprietary selling and servicing model, customers are engaged in a unique experience during each visit. The location has a boutique feel, fitted with premium fixtures, bringing an elevated sophistication to the space and broader market. The location also offers click and collect services making the purchasing process seamless, providing choice to customers during the Covid-19 pandemic.

To ensure the safety of staff and customers, Choom is taking extra precautions, such as physical distancing, and practicing regular sanitization and safety measures, in support of continued Health Canada recommendations.

As part of Choom’s strategic growth planning, Dylan Murray, Choom’s current Vice President of Finance, will step into the role of Chief Financial Officer, with Terese Gieselman continuing in the capacity of Corporate Secretary.
