The Company Also Announces the Details of the Release of Its Upcoming First Quarter 2026 Financial Results

CALGARY, AB, March 6, 2026 /CNW/ - High Tide Inc. ("High Tide" or the "Company") (NASDAQ:HITI) (TSXV:HITI) (FSE: 2LYA), the high-impact, retail-forward enterprise built to deliver real-world value across every component of cannabis, announced today that its Canna Cabana retail cannabis store located at 1355 London Road in Sarnia, Ontario, will begin selling recreational cannabis products and consumption accessories for adult use on March 9, 2026. This opening brings High Tide's total store count to 220 Canna Cabana locations across Canada and 96 in the province of Ontario.

This location marks the Company's first entry into the Sarnia market and represents a strong demographic fit as it expands further into Southwestern Ontario. Strategically positioned in the city's east end along London Road, the site offers excellent visibility within a well-established commercial node directly across Lambton Mall. The store benefits from a highly complementary tenant mix, co-tenanted with nationally recognized retailers in addition to a concentration of big-box retail located directly across the street.

"I am pleased to announce our entry into the Sarnia market as we continue expanding into high-potential communities across Canada where Canna Cabana does not yet have a presence," said Raj Grover, Founder and Chief Executive Officer of High Tide. "Sarnia offers a strong demographic profile for cannabis retail, and we believe our discount club model will resonate well with local consumers seeking value, selection, and a differentiated retail experience."

"While we are proud to have reached 220 stores nationwide, Canada still presents meaningful opportunities for continued organic expansion. Our approach remains disciplined and data-driven, focusing on quality locations and communities where the fundamentals support long-term growth," added Mr. Grover.
