NEW BRITAIN, Conn., Aug. 20, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- As Connecticut's cannabis market reaches $23.8 million in monthly sales, Brix Cannabis is marking its first anniversary with statewide retail expansion, award-winning product launches, and comprehensive portfolio growth that establishes the company as Connecticut's premier emerging cannabis brand.
Operating from a 10,000-square-foot micro-cultivation facility in New Britain, Brix launched with a mission to democratize premium cannabis access across Connecticut. Twelve months later, the company achieved statewide distribution, captured first place at XpoCanna's 2025 X Cup competition, and secured exclusive Connecticut partnership with legendary Chemdog genetics.
"This first year demonstrates our commitment to elevating Connecticut's cannabis industry through innovation, quality, and community engagement," said Cory McCain, General Manager of Brix Cannabis. "We've built momentum by remaining connected to our local market while consistently delivering products that exceed expectations."
Strategic Product Expansion
Brix's "Summer of Brix" campaign expanded market accessibility through strategic pricing while introducing two breakthrough product lines. The Brix Remix series features premium pre-rolls with expertly crafted strain combinations including Baking Bad (Crostata x Chem D) and Fresh Kicks (Mac Stomper x Soap). The Lil' Budz collection offers high-potency 7-gram small-format flower, positioning ahead of Connecticut's October regulatory expansion permitting higher potency limits for adult-use products.
From premium flower specialist, Brix has expanded across multiple categories: artisan pre-rolls, 0.5g all-in-one disposables, and 510 cartridges.
Industry Recognition and Strategic Partnerships
Brix's Purple Milk strain captured first place in Best Indica Flower at the 2025 Xpocanna X Cup - the first time a non-legacy brand earned top honors. The company's exclusive Connecticut partnership with cannabis legend Greg Krzanowski brings coveted Chemdog strains including Chem 91 to market through Brix's platform.
Statewide Availability and Community Impact
Brix products are available throughout Connecticut's leading retailers, including 420 Warehouse in New Britain, which is Connecticut's first retail store co-located with a cultivation facility - and Higher Collective which has locations across Hamden, Bridgeport, Killingly, New London, and Torrington.
Beyond product innovation, Brix sponsors Financial Literacy and Health & Wellness workshops for New Britain youth through partnerships with the Police Athletic League and supports cultural events including comedy shows at Ridgefield Playhouse.
