Thank you for the interview Highly Objective & Dai Truong where Chris Jones discusses CANNABIS XPRESS and his experience growing a profitable chain of retail stores in Canada. www.cannabis-xpress.com https://lnkd.in/e_PaamF3 #CANNABISXPRESS #CANNABIS #CX #XPRESS #RETAIL #CANADA #ONTARIO #NEWBRUNSWICK
🎙️ Latest Highly Objective podcast with CANNABIS XPRESS CEO Chris Jones. Chris walks through how he's leveraged his prior cannabis experience (Star Buds Cannabis Cannabis, Origin House) into building a profitable discount dispensary chain with 16 locations and counting. 👨 Background. Chris founded Cannabis Xpress in 2018 after selling his previous cannabis retail chain, Star Buds Cannabis Cannabis. He has experience in Cannabis M&A and Distribution from his time at Origin House. Cannabis Xpress currently has 16 stores in Ontario and New Brunswick, focusing on smaller towns without other dispensaries present. According to MJBizDaily, as of January 2024, there were more than 3,600 legal recreational dispensaries in Canada, or slightly less than one store per 10,000 residents at the national level. 🏪 Retail strategy and location selection. Cannabis Xpress selects locations based on lessons from California's oversaturation. He opens in towns without other stores to dominate local sales and avoid competition. Local demand alone must sustain stores, not tourism reliance. New Brunswick's private licenses attracted him with guaranteed store monopolies. 🏛️ Competition with government-run cannabis stores. Government stores ensure consistent experience but limited selection. Jones believes private stores increase tax revenue by attracting customers who dislike buying from the government. In British Columbia, private stores face margin pressure from government stores' distribution cost advantage. 🌿 Lessons learned from previous cannabis businesses. Chris Jones applies hard-earned lessons to Cannabis Xpress. He maintains a lean structure, selects low-rent locations, and trains specialized staff to focus on a curated product selection. Previous ventures informed strategic expansion and productive partnerships with provincial regulators. 🌲 Expansion plans. Cannabis Xpress plans to expand in New Brunswick (currently have 3) if awarded more licenses. His goal is to eventually sell the profitable business but will continue expanding across Canada if no suitable buyer emerges in 2024 after expected industry consolidation. 🏬 Cannabis retail M&A landscape in Canada. Many struggling cannabis retailers seek buyers but demand unrealistic valuations for unprofitable stores. Chris Jones expects more failures in 2024 to increase demand for strong operators like Cannabis Xpress, finally creating an attractive exit environment. Larger LPs may still pursue strategic acquisitions for market share despite debt loads. https://lnkd.in/e_PaamF3
