Cru Hemp Lounge continues its major nationwide expansion to South Beach in Miami. Cru Hemp is not advertised as a bar, or as a nightclub. Instead, the brand is marketed as a lifestyle lounge that aims to catch the eye of not only the patrons but of the franchise developers in the area as well.
Due to the growing popularity of smokeable hemp, combined with craft cocktails and delicious tapas-style small plated food, the Cru Hemp Lounges are making successful strides. The company's franchise partner-owned lifestyle lounges are open, or soon to be open, in several regions across the United States. Lounges boast 1,500-2,000 square feet footprints, premium cocktails, Tapas, hookah, smokeable CBD flower, and CBD gummies across all locations.
