Michele Romanow Visited TechPOS at a Vancouver Cannabis Trade Show

TechPOS had the opportunity to meet Michele Romanow from Dragons’ Den when she visited our booth at a cannabis trade show in Vancouver. During her visit, she took time to learn about our retail technology and how TechPOS supports dispensaries with fast checkout workflows, secure cash handling, and an easy-to-use point-of-sale experience designed specifically for cannabis retailers.

Her visit was a meaningful moment for our team because it highlighted the importance of building cannabis retail tools that are not only powerful, but also practical and simple for staff to use every day.

Highlights From Her Visit

While speaking with our team, Michele Romanow recognized TechPOS for its speed and the operational features that help dispensaries reduce risk and improve control at checkout. She also noted how important usability is in retail environments—especially in fast-paced stores where budtenders need a system that is intuitive and reliable.

Why Speed and Security Matter in Cannabis Retail

Cannabis retail requires a balance of speed, accuracy, and compliance-ready processes. Dispensaries often face long lineups, frequent inventory changes, and strict operational controls. A purpose-built Cannabis POS system helps retailers manage these challenges with tools designed for the realities of the cannabis industry.

Speed matters because faster checkout improves customer experience and reduces bottlenecks during peak hours. Security matters because dispensaries handle cash-heavy transactions and must maintain strong internal controls to reduce shrink, errors, and fraud risk.

Trade Shows and Industry Events

Industry events are an important way for cannabis retailers and technology providers to connect, share feedback, and explore new tools. For TechPOS, trade shows help us learn directly from dispensary owners and budtenders—so we can continue improving the platform based on real retail needs.

If you’re attending a future event and would like to see TechPOS in action, we’d love to meet you and walk you through the system.
