Two days after admitting they are running low, they have announced they will be closed.
Starting Monday Oct. 29, the SQDC stores in Quebec will be closed on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays until further notice.
Stores will be open Thursdays through Sundays at their regular hours. No layoffs are anticipated.
The online SQDC store will be open 24/7, and customers should expect to be delivered within two to five business days.
However, the cannabis outlets may be available for certain products because they are not providing enough.
On Wednesday the SQDC said it is expected to have problems for several months, possibly throughout its first year in business.
"In the current state of the art, there will be a challenge," said the SQDC in a statement.
The SQDC has been swamped with orders since it opened on Oct. 17, with most of its sales happening at its brick and mortar locations across the province.
In the first week more than 138,000 sales were made.
Officials knew that they would likely be faced with a supply challenge, as well as other North American regions where cannabis was legalized.
Multiple agencies including Health Canada would be shortfalls in the nationwide supply of the first few months of operation.
