Surrey, BC is set to welcome a long-awaited addition to its legal cannabis market. Cannabis Connection, a locally owned and family-operated cannabis retailer serving the Fraser Valley since 2021, is opening its first Surrey cannabis store in the Fleetwood neighbourhood on February 11, 2026.
For years, Surrey residents have had limited access to licensed cannabis retail, often travelling to Langley, Delta, or White Rock to purchase regulated products. The opening of a licensed cannabis store in Fleetwood, Surrey represents a meaningful shift—bringing safe, legal, and locally regulated cannabis access directly into one of the city’s fastest-growing communities.
A New Cannabis Store in Fleetwood, Surrey
The new Cannabis Connection Fleetwood location is situated along Fraser Highway near 152 Street, a highly visible and well-traveled corridor in Surrey. The store is located just steps away from the future Fleetwood SkyTrain station, currently under construction as part of Surrey’s expanding rapid transit network.
This strategic location positions the store to serve not only Fleetwood residents, but also customers from Guildford, Cloverdale, and other nearby Surrey neighbourhoods. As transit-oriented development accelerates along Fraser Highway, access to licensed cannabis retail is increasingly viewed as part of a complete, modern urban community.
Expanding Access to Licensed Cannabis in Surrey
Surrey is one of Metro Vancouver’s largest and fastest-growing cities, yet has historically had fewer licensed cannabis retailers than neighbouring municipalities. The opening of Cannabis Connection’s Surrey location helps address this gap by offering:
- Regulated, government-licensed cannabis products
- A legal alternative to unlicensed dispensaries
- Knowledgeable staff trained in responsible cannabis education
- Compliance with all provincial and federal cannabis regulations
Since opening its first locations in Mission and Chilliwack, Cannabis Connection has focused on operating transparently within British Columbia’s regulated cannabis framework, while prioritizing quality, safety, and customer education.
Local Economic Impact in Fleetwood and Surrey
The arrival of a new licensed cannabis retailer in Fleetwood also brings tangible economic benefits to the city of Surrey, including:
- Local job creation in retail and operations
- Retention of cannabis-related consumer spending within Surrey
- Municipal and provincial tax revenue generated through regulated sales
- Support for licensed Canadian cannabis producers and distributors
As Surrey continues to grow through immigration and housing development, regulated cannabis retail plays a role in supporting both local employment and broader economic stability.
Grand Opening Details and February Promotion
Cannabis Connection Fleetwood officially opens on February 11, 2026. To mark the occasion, the store will be offering 10% off all products throughout the month of February, welcoming both first-time customers and long-time Surrey residents who have been waiting for a local cannabis store.
This Fleetwood opening also marks the company’s first step into Surrey, with a second Surrey location planned later in 2026 in the Newton area, further expanding access to licensed cannabis retail across the city.
A Milestone for Surrey’s Legal Cannabis Market
The opening of Cannabis Connection in Fleetwood reflects the continued normalization and maturation of Canada’s legal cannabis industry—particularly in large urban centres like Surrey that are still catching up in terms of retail access.
As licensed cannabis retail becomes more integrated into local commercial corridors, openings like this highlight the importance of community-focused, compliant operators in shaping the future of cannabis retail in British Columbia.
