Smokiez Edibles has announced plans for continued international expansion in partnership with Global Cannabis Exchange (GCX), an international B2B platform supporting wholesale cannabis and hemp markets.
Smokiez is currently operating in 22 United States markets, with goals to be in 26 markets towards the end of 2026, as well as Puerto Rico and Costa Rica. GCX is a privately operated digital platform designed to support licensed market participants by providing access to a transparent, information-driven marketplace. The partnership will help Smokiez navigate the global cannabis sector and support the company's strategy for international growth.
"Over the past 15 years, we have expanded our market presence and Smokiez has become the fourth largest edible company in the United States, all while maintaining a commitment to quality and innovation," said Chuck Wright, Co-Founder and CEO of Smokiez. "When we founded Smokiez in 2010, our original goal was to be in all 50 United States markets and 200 countries. We are excited to team up with Global Cannabis Exchange and take real steps toward making that vision a reality."
GCX is currently vetting different licensee partners in select regions and eyeing a Q4 release in the first country. "We are excited to partner with Smokiez as they take the next step in their global growth strategy," said Steve Clark, CEO of Global Cannabis Exchange. "Smokiez represents the kind of established, high-integrity brand that international markets are demanding. Through GCX, we are focused on creating compliant, efficient pathways for proven operators to expand beyond borders and build sustainable global supply chains."
