The Ontario Cannabis Store says its distribution centre is resuming some service after a cyberattack on one of its logistics partners caused the provincial pot wholesaler to halt deliveries this week.
“The Ontario Cannabis Store’s distribution centre is in the process of returning to operational status,” said David Lobo, the OCS’s president and CEO, in a statement posted to the distributor’s website Wednesday afternoon.
Orders will be processed in the sequence they were placed on the OCS ordering platform and his organization will provide further information this evening about what retailers can expect during the recovery period. The OCS has said there was no indication its systems were targeted or its customers’ information was compromised during the attack. Domain Logistics has not responded to requests for comment.
Licensed cannabis producer Hexo won’t be seeking compensation from the OCS because of the cyberattack, but CEO Charlie Bowman called the impacts of the situation “frustrating.”
