Retailers have learned that supply can be spotty, competition is fierce and not everything consumers crave is available.

TORONTO — Sean Kady spent most of his 20s toting around a teal tackle box that once belonged to his roommate’s grandfather. Occasionally, people would spot the box and ask to borrow a wrench, but it didn’t contain tools or bait.Kady has since gone legit, having opened Toronto pot shop Cosmic Charlies with his brother in 2021. But the money was so good in his tackle box days, he sometimes wonders if he had the right idea even though he was on the wrong side of the law.

Over the last five years, she’s seen Ontario flip-flop on the store licensing process, faced rivals trying to steal business by opening nearby and survived six weeks of shipping delays after a cyberattack at Ontario’s cannabis distributor. In Alberta, for example, she said the median income for a cannabis shop is less than $85,000 a month.

Take General Admission’s distillate infused pre-rolls. Without even looking at the box, Sean Kady can tell you they’re flavoured with fake terpenes and emit such a strong candy aroma, Charlie Kady calls them “the White Claw of cannabis” in a reference to the popular fruit-flavoured alcoholic seltzers.Supply, however, has been an issue for some stores.
