StoosNews Spotlight: Check Out The Business Beat This Week Featuring Sunfish Cannabis, Sparq Retail, Darling Insurance and The Pizza Factory

PTBOCanada is delighted to be running StooNews columns each week here, spotlighting new businesses and startups in Peterborough and the Kawarthas. Here is this week’s edition…

Sunfish Cannabis opened last week at 112 Queen Street in Lakefield, (the plaza containing the Market and Subway). Owner Craig Hamilton submitted the license application eight days before the pandemic struck last year so it’s taken some time but they opened poetically on April 20 at 4:20 p.m.

Sunfish sells pre-rolls, flowers, vaporizers, concentrates, edibles, topicals, beverages and merchandise. Check their official website or on Instagram.

Sparq Retail has opened a second location at 861 Lansdowne Street, next to Chapters. Owner Robert Brunsch says to watch for a third location in the future.

Electric City Physiotherapy will be opening May 3 at 1054 Monaghan Rd. in Peterborough.

They are an interdisciplinary clinic where physiotherapists, rehabilitation/recovery specialists, massage therapists and orthopedic technologists all work together to improve performance and bring individuals back to full capacity. Their practitioners provide treatment for all patients regardless of age, activity level or condition. Visit their official website for details and to book an appointment.

Darling Insurance has found yet another way to give back to the communities where they do business.

They are filling gift baskets with hyper-local products from companies like Kyoto Coffee, The Chocolate Rabbit, Black Honey, Staples Maple Syrup, The Whistle Stop, and the Cork and Bean and handing them out to their clients, dropping them as congratulations, birthdays, thank yous or just to say hello. It’s a great way to spread some cheer, and not just to the recipients!

Congratulations to Peter, Anna and the staff at The Pizza Factory on their 41st anniversary.
