A new recreational cannabis dispensary, Bloom & Blaze, has opened its doors in Saginaw, aiming to offer an enhanced customer experience. Located at 1724 E. Genesee Ave., the dispensary is co-owned by local entrepreneurs Laquanda Hoskins and Letisha Randle, who are expanding their business ventures in the region.

In addition to their work with Bloom & Blaze, Hoskins and Randle manage two other businesses, PRH Group and I Heart Mac and Cheese, also based in Saginaw. Randle emphasized that their businesses are rooted in community improvement, noting, "We strive to find things that help our community because we definitely have strong ties in the Saginaw area."

Bloom & Blaze's storefront features a modern design with a welcoming atmosphere. Upon arrival, customers are greeted by staff who guide them through a personalized shopping experience with the help of knowledgeable budtenders. The dispensary places a strong emphasis on educating both its employees and customers, ensuring that individuals receive comprehensive information about the products and their potential benefits.

The owners have put significant thought into the dispensary's aesthetic and community presence. According to Randle, "We really wanted to provide something different from what we've seen out there as far as cannabis dispensaries," highlighting their focus on education, engagement, and community beautification.

One of the goals of Bloom & Blaze is to address misconceptions surrounding cannabis use. Hoskins remarked that they aim to educate customers not only about recreational uses but also potential health benefits, such as pain relief. They also highlight how cannabis may assist with specific health issues, including menstrual discomfort.

Inside the dispensary, customers can find a wide array of cannabis products, including flower, edibles, concentrates, pre-rolls, topicals, and unique items like cannabis-infused cereal. Hoskins and Randle are committed to providing a diverse selection, catering to both new and experienced consumers.

By establishing Bloom & Blaze, Hoskins and Randle continue to contribute to Saginaw's business landscape. Their efforts are driven by a desire to create value for the community and combat negative stereotypes surrounding cannabis.
