BARCELONA, Spain, May 29, 2020 /PRNewswire/ — Cookies, the leading lifestyle and cannabis brand, is proud to herald in a new generation of locations that reach beyond its roots in North America. Cookies SF, the lifestyle accessories and clothing company founded by the world-renowned owner and CEO of Cookies cannabis, Berner, officially opened its doors to the fans in Barcelona on May 26, 2020. The new location for Cookies SF speaks to the unprecedented organic growth of the brand which has been driven entirely by consumer demand.

Recognizing the natural evolution of the celebration and legalization of cannabis becoming a global movement, Cookies has decided to meet the increased consumer demand by bringing their brand and products to the international consumer, marking a momentous time in cannabis culture.

Said Berner, co-founder and CEO of Cookies and Cookies SF on the location and opening, “We picked Spain as our first store overseas because I personally fell in love with Barcelona the very first time I visited and watching the brand gain traction over the years was truly humbling. The last time I was in Spain, people from Italy, Ireland, Germany and all over the world gathered in smoke shops and expressed their interest and loyalty to the brand. Barcelona has been a place that cannabis consumers from all over the world gather and we thought it was a must to open a flagship clothing store.”

Cookies SF products can be found at the newest location in Barcelona, Spain and visitors are invited to experience the full lineup of Cookies SF merchandise. Proper social distancing and safety precautions are in place as to ensure a safe and clean environment for store visitors and fans to experience.

“Hopefully we can get an official social club in the future, that would be life goals,” Berner remarked as he spoke to his ambition to open a social space for the Cookies fans in Barcelona. Remaining true to its roots, the ambition is to continue to meet the demand for the brand and products across the globe and the Barcelona presence is the beginning of a coordinated global expansion strategy for the brand.
