Route 1 Purchasing & Distribution: Building the Cannabis Highway

Alberta is Canada’s largest cannabis retail market with 542 stores and growing. The problem is that most quality craft cannabis producers in Canada lack support in representing their products appropriately. In a relatively new industry, often with narrow margins, and so much competition, it's difficult for craft producers to overcome this hurdle alone.

Route 1 agency is the solution. We are Canada’s only Alberta-based cannabis sales and marketing agency: a company that will help progress the Canadian cannabis industry by moving craft cannabis from Canadian producers throughout the Alberta market. Route 1 is driven by building relationships and educating clientele on the products we represent, and we offer sales support and a well-connected, passionate team. For more information, visit us at www.route1agency.com or email us at contact@route1agency.com.
