Distribution across the region

Southwestern Ontario runs from Waterloo Region through London to Windsor, taking in Hamilton and the Niagara peninsula. It is a dense band of mid-sized cities, each with its own retail centre rather than one dominant hub, so distribution here reaches many independent operators.

Questions

Waterloo — common questions

Do border cities have different rules?

No. Provincial rules apply uniformly across Ontario. Cannabis cannot be taken across an international border in either direction, regardless of where it was purchased.

Is any of this available outside Ontario?

Our own brands are listed with the Ontario Cannabis Store. Products we have manufactured under contract have been sold in five provinces, but we do not announce a province for our own brands until we have signed listings there.

Where can I buy Sophia’s Garden Artisan in Waterloo?

Through authorized cannabis retailers in Waterloo. Like every licensed producer in Ontario, we supply the provincial system and stores order from it — we do not sell to the public directly, and we do not ship or deliver.

Which products are available in Waterloo?

MICRO ZEN, a balanced THC:CBD milk chocolate, and MICRO ZEST, a balanced THC:CBG yuzu chocolate. Both are formulated at 1 mg of each cannabinoid per unit, ten units to a pack. Whether a particular store carries them is that retailer’s decision.

Are the products made in Waterloo?

No. Everything is manufactured at our facility in Thunder Bay, then distributed through the provincial system to retailers in Waterloo.
