"This acquisition will not only be a boon to cannabis retailers across North America but also enrich millions of consumer experiences," BudTender CEO Jake Crow noted Tuesday. "This will undoubtedly create a more modern cannabis industry, and we are thrilled to officially join forces with springbig."

Now that online ordering and shopping are becoming more ubiquitous when it comes to purchasing and selling cannabis products, Springbig has firmly established itself within the industry.

In May, amid the coronavirus outbreak, the company announced a collaboration with San Francisco-based delivery service Onfleet.

In June, Dutchie, and springbig made official their technology partnership, allowing stores to reproduce their in-store customer loyalty experience online.

Shortly after, Boca Raton, Florida-based Springbig teamed up with GrowFlow to support cannabis businesses in streamlining operations and staying compliant with the industry's laws and regulations.
