CanEmpire's journey began back in 2015, when the two co-founders and childhood best friends Awa and Véronique were picturing their cannabis-friendly dream world. Driven by the subject, they were launching grandiose ideas one after the other, and at that very moment, they were already convinced that they would one day mark the cannabis industry with their ideas.
​
It is in 2019, after years of work, that the founders decided to take the plunge and officially launch CanEmpire with their partners Marc-Antoine and Mathieu.
CanEmpire is the dream and enthusiasm of young entrepreneurs eager to push back the barriers and offer cannabis lovers entertainment tailored to their image.
CanEmpire is a Canadian company that creates unique cannabis-friendly experiences in a dynamic and open environment.
At CanEmpire, we try to fight the stigma surrounding cannabis that persists despite its legalization in Canada through our various educational and entertaining projects. To do so, we rely on contributing to the population’s knowledge on this subject.
Within the company, ambition, innovation, open-mindedness and happiness are our keywords!
Behind every CanEmpire project is a dedicated
and passionate team of dreamers: the CanTeam!
