Superette in Ottawa occupies a corner unit on Wellington St. W. at Grange Ave., a vibrant neighbourhood populated by restaurants and cafes.
Co-founded by Mimi Lam and Drummond Munro, the store is designed to accommodate new and experienced cannabis consumers alike.

Drawing inspiration from grocery and convenience stores that Canadians are already accustomed to, Superette eases customers into the new world of cannabis retail by creating a familiar setting where shoppers are invited to browse independently or engage with customer service representatives as they wish.

Quick Hit
Superette stands out for its fresh aesthetic that simultaneously feels familiar.
Vibe
The interior scheme at Superette is convenience store-meets-soda fountain. Pegboards propped with cannabis-adjacent products: vaporizers, pipes, papers, infusers, merch, and more are displayed throughout the store while cannabis can be ordered at the counter.

Customer Service
The Superette shopping experience is a choose-your-own-adventure.
Those that want to browse in peace can grab a red shopping basket, while those that know what they want going in can just beeline to the express counter and order off a menu for quick service without the Q&A.

Consumers looking for guidance can express their interest by grabbing a green basket and then chatting up budtenders working the room. Comfy vinyl booths and red vinyl stools at the counter offer dedicated spaces for consultations.

What You Should Know
Customers are greeted by security at the front doors and are required to present a valid ID before entering.
And, while branded Superette merch is on display throughout the store, much of it can’t be sold alongside cannabis per provincial regulations. To score one of the sweet totes, t-shirts, or hats, you’ll have to rely on off-site pop-up shops to make a purchase.
