Pioneer Valley Trading Co. (Southwick)

In The Reminder’s July 2024 coverage of Southwick’s permit process, Michael Paul Albert and Richard Fiore were named as the people who submitted the Pioneer Valley Trading Co. application. The paper described both as principals at the company’s existing retail cannabis operation on Southampton Road in Westfield. Their Southwick application remained among four finalists for two retail permits after another applicant withdrew. Separately, the retailer’s own page says the business was founded by people from the region. With the source distinction intact, those details show the applicants’ prior company connection and the regional origin the retailer claims.

The retailer page lists Flower & Pre-Rolls as a product category; the supplied excerpt provides no individual product names, units or prices.

Supplied route data gives two concrete trip-planning references. Amelia Park Children’s Museum is a 4.03-mile, 87-minute walk or a 4.33-mile, 10-minute drive. Stanley Park is a 5.37-mile, 118-minute walk or a 5.08-mile, 10-minute drive. Both driving times are traffic-unaware estimates rather than live-traffic guidance; check current conditions before leaving.
