Directory methodology

What a listing means

Where the details come from

Our directory contains 634 unique store records across 103 cities, sourced from Google Places, public Google Maps listings, and business websites. The most recent record collection was Oct 10, 2026; older records keep their original collection dates. Later field-specific checks appear separately on individual listings. Store names, addresses, phone numbers, hours, and Google ratings reflect those sources, not a live feed.

We use web discovery tools to find candidates, then check the public business identity, location, and kratom evidence before adding them. Search summaries alone are not verification. New listings link to their checked sources and explain which fields each source supports.

A website may mention a brand without having it in stock. When we display website-derived product information, it is a lead to confirm directly with the store.

Closed businesses and historical records

622 records are included in discovery. The 12 businesses reported permanently closed are excluded from search, city results, and nearby recommendations. Their detail pages remain available as historical records with source information and correction links. They have no call or directions buttons. Excluding known closures does not establish that every remaining business is currently open.

How results are ordered

City listings are alphabetical. Text search matches store names, cities, states, state abbreviations, and ZIP codes present in our records. Location search uses store coordinates to show listings within 50 miles, ordered by straight-line distance. It does not calculate travel times or driving distance.

Hours, availability, and prices

We label source hours as “listed hours.” Without a recent verification date and the store’s time zone, we do not claim it is open now. Stock and prices must be confirmed directly; a strain guide is not a store inventory list.

Ratings and reader reviews

Google ratings are labeled separately from reviews submitted to this site. We do not combine those rating pools or publish generated reviews. Reader submissions are moderated; publication does not establish a verified purchase. Editorial brand assessments are opinions, not customer ratings.

Business photos

Photos come from the linked business source. We match the business identity and address before attaching an image, and link each photo to its source. Images may have been taken earlier and do not prove current inventory or operating status. We do not use generated storefronts or substitute photos of neighboring businesses. When a matching photo is unavailable, we show a labeled placeholder.

Own this business? Send a correction or a photo source link, including the listing URL. Please share a photo you own or have permission to use.

Verification and corrections

“Source collected” means a record was imported. It is different from owner confirmation or a field-specific website check. Each new check identifies the source, the fields examined, the date and any disagreement. Unknown details stay unknown. A checked address does not refresh the date of a phone number, photo or opening schedule.

Submit a correction, closure, or new listing. Include the listing URL, the field that changed, and a source we can check. Public pages update after review and the next site release.

Editorial independence

Read our editorial policy and affiliate disclosure. Store results are not sold as ranking positions.
