The Annex by Superette is the cannabis retailer's latest shop, marking the brand's seventh location. Designed with college and university students in mind, The Annex location feels like a neighborhood Italian deli. Superette is known for its revolutionary cannabis retail spaces, and its new location is no exception.
Students and cannabis users aged 19+ can purchase and consume cannabis all in one place. The Annex conveniently combines the nostalgia of a corner deli with the novelty of a cannabis consumption lounge, creating a hub for cannabis enthusiasts to gather, socialize, and work. The space is equipped with stools bellied up to the bar over green and white checkered floors. Customers are encouraged to arrive with their laptops and take advantage of the store's Wifi while they legally purchase and consume cannabis.
