XShack and NECANN Join Forces to Strengthen Cannabis Products Discovery

XShack is expanding its industry connections with a new partnership with NECANN, one of the best-known cannabis convention networks in the United States. NECANN has been running locally focused cannabis products conventions since 2014, bringing together operators, cultivators, investors, advocacy groups, technology providers, educators, and other parts of the industry.

XShack is designed to help users discover cannabis products, see what is available nearby, and connect with local dispensaries through a more organised digital experience. The partnership brings those two strengths together: NECANN’s industry network and XShack’s product-discovery platform.

What NECANN Brings to the Partnership

NECANN brings a strong local-first industry network built around cannabis shopping, education, and professional connections. The organisation describes its conventions as B2B events focused on individual state markets, rather than a single national model. At present, its convention circuit covers several U.S. markets, including New Jersey, Rhode Island, Massachusetts, Pennsylvania, Virginia, Vermont, and Minnesota.

That local focus matters in cannabis because licensing rules, retail models, business networks, and consumer expectations can vary from one market to another. NECANN’s events bring together companies involved in cultivation, retail, technology, compliance, packaging, education, advocacy, and investment. For XShack, this creates a natural connection with a broader group of businesses already active in the cannabis industry.

Why the Partnership Makes Sense for XShack

The partnership gives XShack a stronger connection to the businesses and communities shaping local cannabis markets.

XShack assists consumers in finding cannabis products, finding their nearest options, learning about their features, and visiting dispensary locations. Moreover, XShack assists dispensaries in analyzing consumer needs, understanding current market trends, gaining visibility into their inventory, and using other digital tools.

Thus, the role of NECANN becomes quite clear. NECANN facilitates business-to-business connections through conventions, whereas XShack provides consumers with discovery and accessibility tools through digital platforms. Both of them work at different stages of one and the same process.

Better Cannabis Products Discovery Starts With Better Connections

Cannabis products discovery becomes more useful when product information, local availability, and dispensary access are connected. A shopper may know they want flowers, pre-rolls, edibles, vapes, or another cannabis format, but still have plenty of products to sort through.

XShack is built to make that process easier. These services include customized product offerings, personalized suggestions, descriptions for each product, inventory details of products available locally, and access to nearby dispensaries. NECANN adds another layer by connecting XShack to an additional network of professionals in other markets.

What This Could Mean for Cannabis Shopping

For shoppers, the main benefit is a more connected way to move from product research to local availability. Online cannabis shopping can become frustrating when product information sits on one site, dispensary inventory sits somewhere else, and local availability is not always obvious.

XShack already tries to solve that by bringing product discovery and nearby dispensary information into one platform.  NECANN’s industry relationships can strengthen that ecosystem by connecting XShack with more operators, brands, and businesses across local markets.

The value is not simply having more cannabis products listed. It helps users understand what is available, where to find it, and which options are most relevant to what they are looking for.

The Bigger Picture for XShack and NECANN

The partnership connects XShack’s digital product-discovery tools with NECANN’s established cannabis industry network.

NECANN brings years of experience building local cannabis conventions and industry communities. XShack brings a digital platform focused on cannabis products, personalised discovery, dispensary access, and real-time information.

Together, they create stronger connections between businesses, users, and the wider cannabis ecosystem. For XShack, the partnership also supports its broader goal of making cannabis shopping more organised and easier to navigate.
