Trevor Fencott, the company's CEO said that apart from its "continued strong financial performance," Fire & Flower's progress in the third quarter was demonstrated by its "many growth opportunities that we successfully advanced in order to solidify our high-margin, asset-light cannabis retail business model."

Over the period, the company wrapped up the acquisitions of online cannabis platforms PotGuide and Wikileaf, "setting the stage for the role out of our expanded e-commerce digital platform strategy," Fencott explained.

The company also bolstered the Circle K co-location program to expand its retail footprint. It currently operates 102 stores nationwide.

The recently secured $30 million in financing through a loan agreement with 2707031 Ontario Inc., an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of Alimentation Couche-Tard Inc., is intended to help further the development of the company's consumer digital platform.
