Budega NYC, founded by Alex Norman and Louis W. Colon III, is set to open on June 27 in Park Slope, Brooklyn. With a goal of fostering a community-centric cannabis shopping experience, the store plans to replicate the warmth of a local bodega. This family-run business uniquely incorporates mental health support, emphasizing responsible cannabis use. Norman's journey from running an illegal marijuana delivery service to becoming a licensed entrepreneur under New York's progressive cannabis laws reflects a broader trend in the industry's new regulatory landscape.
We want to become that local spot. The ethos of being your local bodega we really take that to heart, Colon added.
If we can do that, it's important to us because we can put our family's stamp on the cannabis industry.
