About Sunrise Cannabis
Proudly serving East Vancouver since 2015, Sunrise Cannabis remains one of the few legacy organizations that have transitioned to the regulated market and have been an active participant in promoting legalization in Canada.
Having deep roots in the craft cannabis industry, our interest is and has always been to provide helpful cannabis knowledge to the general public so they can make informed decisions about cannabis and cannabis related products.
We don’t own liquor stores, restaurants chains, nor are we a part of some publicly traded stock. Simply stated, we are connoisseurs of the best cannabis there is to offer and we want our customers to feel like they matter when they choose to shop with us.
