FLUENT

FLUENT Corp. is a vertically integrated cannabis company headquartered in Tampa, Florida, with about 500 employees. Its retail operating entity is Etain, LLC, doing business as FLUENT Cannabis. The company holds licenses in Florida, New York and Texas, and runs seven cultivation and manufacturing facilities that feed its own stores and its wholesale arm, Entourage Wholesale, which sells FLUENT-made products to other licensed retailers.

FLUENT reports 34 active retail locations at the end of the second quarter of 2026, nearly all of them in Florida, plus a New York store and a Palm Bay, Florida opening in July. Its consumer brands include Freedom Town, MOODS, Hyer Kind, Smokiez and Wandr. In May 2026 it agreed to sell its Texas operations to Legacy Therapeutics for $30 million, a sale that still needs regulatory approval.

FLUENT shareholders approved an all-stock arrangement with Vireo Growth Inc. on July 28, 2026, at 0.0705359 of a Vireo subordinate voting share per FLUENT share, with closing expected in the fourth quarter of 2026 after remaining regulatory approvals. Until then FLUENT operates and buys independently.
