Tofield opens its first cannabis store, owners happy with response
After a long and arduous journey, co-owners of Nobal Buds – Brad Brooks and Ian Mansley – were happy to welcome customers on Friday, Feb. 28 to their new facility in Tofield, the first-ever cannabis store in all of Beaver County.
Blown away by the positive response, Mansley said that the first few days since the opening have been hectic, which is how they would like the business to be.
“We’ve been very busy, with the store being new and all; now we will have to see where it goes,” Mansley said. “our expectations this opening weekend have been mind-blowing . . . I just hope the trend continues.”
Both Brooks and Mansley have “worked hard” to give customers competitive pricing so that they can source their supplies from the local store without having the need to go into cities.
Having operated businesses before they have worked out the details to keep a lower overhead.
“We can offer better pricing on our product because we have a lower overhead than most stores in larger urban centres,” Mansley explained. “By doing this, we hope to encourage customers to shop local, as well as have people come from out of town to shop.” . . . contd.
