The new store is located at 345 SW 10th Place within the Shops at Del Mar plaza, adding to the company’s growing footprint in Lee County. It becomes Curaleaf’s third location in the immediate area, joining existing dispensaries in Fort Myers and Bonita Springs.
The Cape Coral location will offer a range of products tailored to Florida’s medical marijuana market, including the company’s Florida-exclusive Reef flower, Anthem pre-rolls, and Select Briq vape products. The expansion comes as Curaleaf continues to build out its presence in one of the country’s largest and most competitive medical marijuana markets.
To mark the opening, Curaleaf has scheduled multiple events spanning several days. On March 26, the company will host a “Meet the Manager” event from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m., offering an opportunity for industry partners, local business owners, and community leaders to connect with the team ahead of the public launch.
A two-day grand opening celebration will follow on March 27 and 28 from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m., where patients will be invited to tour the new dispensary, meet staff, and learn more about the company’s offerings. The celebration will include a ribbon-cutting ceremony along with promotions and giveaways, including a $250 store credit, a Puffco 3DXL device, and a behind-the-scenes tour of Curaleaf’s cultivation operations.
“With 72 stores statewide, our growing presence in Florida reflects our commitment to the state and its medical patients,” said Boris Jordan, Chairman and CEO of Curaleaf. “Our longstanding roots, market expertise, and quality products allow us to expand thoughtfully into communities needing greater access to medical cannabis, while delivering an exceptional retail experience to our patients. We are excited to serve more patients in Lee County with the opening of our Cape Coral store and look forward to announcing additional openings across the state in the near-term.”
The new Cape Coral dispensary represents the latest step in Curaleaf’s continued expansion across Florida, where the company has steadily increased its retail presence amid ongoing discussions about potential changes to the state’s marijuana laws.
