Case Study: Hobo Cannabis launches delivery in 24 hours with Cova

How Cova Helped Hobo Cannabis Launch Delivery Program in 24 Hours

Hobo Cannabis, an Ontario retailer, faced fast-changing COVID-19 regulations that repeatedly opened and closed options for in-store, curbside, and delivery sales. To keep serving customers and comply with shifting rules, Hobo needed to stand up a compliant delivery program immediately and leverage its existing high-volume operations—so they turned to the Cova POS platform for online ordering, inventory management, and delivery integrations.

Using Cova’s integrations (with partners like Dutchie and Onfleet), Hobo launched a delivery service in under 24 hours, automating order push, fulfillment, routing, and proof-of-delivery while keeping inventory and reporting accurate. The Cova-enabled workflow let Hobo scale to hundreds of deliveries per day within weeks, handled 117 deliveries across two stores on a single Saturday, and supported the flagship store’s position as the top-transacting retailer in Ontario. Cova’s platform and support delivered the speed, compliance, and operational efficiency Hobo needed.
