After earlier this summer acquiring three Connecticut cannabis dispensaries from the Botanist, Budr said it has officially rebranded and reopened the stores.
The three dispensary locations—in Danbury Mill Plain Road, Vernon, and Montville— bring Budr's total footprint to eight dispensaries, seven across Connecticut and one in New York.
Budr today is offering discounts, contests, free food and entertainment to celebrate the substantial expansion of its retail operations.
The company said medical card partners will be available at its four hybrid locations, which serve both medical patients and adult-use customers (Danbury Mill Plain Road, Montville, Vernon, and Stratford).
The dispensary acquisitions come as Budr also looks to expand into cannabis production. According to News Times, the company is currently searching for a 10,000-square-foot warehouse space in Connecticut that can serve as a small-scale cultivation operation.
“Micro-cultivation is going to … put us in control of our distribution," Budr CEO Carl Tirella told the publication. “At the end of the day, we could be the second largest company in Connecticut, behind Fine Fettle, but first, integration is our priority; we want to make sure our customer experience second-to-none.”
