Tell us about the Cannabis Store Amsterdam concept.

Cannabis Store Amsterdam, and its brand marketed in the UK, Cannabillion, is an innovative concept that combines the idea of a souvenir shop with the incredible world of legal hemp. We are a young, thriving company that count on the many years of experience of our management time and offer two types of franchise that can be opened: a souvenir shop or a souvenir shop with bar service. We sell everything from smoking accessories (grinders, rolling paper, pipes, bongs, to legal hemp edibles (biscuits, muffins, chocolate, lollypops), merchandising (backpacks, jackets, t-shirts, name badges, beanies), drinks (soft drinks, CBD water, wine, beer) and an extensive cosmetic line.

In addition to this, we pride ourselves on having the widest product range for a shop of this type in Europe, with more than 250 products in total and new products being constantly added to the list.

We are arguably the leading hemp-related shop in the continent and are supported by an entire network of experts in the field and successful franchises in different countries.
