Halo Collective Inc. announced that the first Budega dispensary is now officially open in the Arts District of North Hollywood, California. This is the first of three Budega stores planned to open in Los Angeles.
“We are thrilled to establish our Southern California retail presence with the opening of our Budega store in NoHo,” said Katie Field, President and Director of Halo in a statement. “Budega is a community-centric dispensary committed to elevating the cannabis experience through Californian ideals: superior quality, locally-sourced products, and sunset vibes. I can’t think of a better place to launch than in the middle of one of the most vibrant neighborhoods of L.A.”
Budega North Hollywood is located at the northwest corner of Lankershim Boulevard and Hesby Avenue. Currently, hours of operation are Monday through Sunday from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Beau McKeon, SVP of Retail stated, “The shop is already performing beyond our expectations. We expect more revenue build-up prior to our upcoming grand opening events which coincides perfectly with our delivery services expected to start in April.”
The store offers a product assortment exceeding 1000 SKUs, including many California brands including Jungle Boys, Cookies and Kiva and the debut of Budega’s own line of branded products. The store will also stock Halo’s Hush branded cartridges, gummies, and pre-rolls. The Company is also licensed for delivery, and this additional service is expected to increase top-line sales and help capture overall market share. The NoHo location’s delivery service area will include Studio City, North Hollywood, Hollywood Burbank, and the Eastern San Fernando Valley.
