Authenticated Stores:

Send Your Stories to Rolling Stoner

Writer: Andrew Macfarlane

Rolling Stoner invites authenticated stores across South Africa to share lifestyle news, events, and community stories from their businesses.

  • Opening a new venue? 
  • Launching a product or service? 
  • Hosting an event, expanding your store or supporting a local initiative?


We want to hear about it.

Share Your Cannabis Lifestyle News

As we all know, cannabis lifestyle news is often overlooked, diluted or censored by major media platforms. 

Rolling Stoner offers an independent space where authenticated businesses can speak directly to a wider, elevated community.

We understand the people, culture and creativity behind the sector because we are part of it. 

This is not lifestyle news filtered through distant corporate boardrooms (you’ve met Cameron). It is news shared by the community, for the community.

Many authenticated stores have stocked our uncensored lifestyle magazine. 

With Edition Seven on the way, we would like to return that support by helping worthwhile stories travel beyond the shop counter.

What Stories Can Authenticated Stores Submit?

Authenticated cannabis stores can submit news about:

  • New store openings and expansions
  • Lifestyle events and community gatherings
  • Product or service launches
  • Collaborations and creative projects
  • Community initiatives
  • Business milestones
  • Relevant industry developments

And honestly, with our new Rolling Stoner Sessions, we’re discovering new stories every day!

How to Submit Your News

Send us your press release, announcement, supporting information and high-quality images that help tell the story.

Also, if you are a busy store owner with no time to create these assets, we can help. Just pop us an email to our public relations and SEO writer: Andrew Macfarlane | andrew@rollingstoner.co.za

Editorial Consideration and Publication

Every submission will be reviewed editorially, and we will provide feedback on how we can use the information and more. 

When the story fits, and the opportunity is right, we want to help authenticated stores share their news with the people who support the sector.

This is lifestyle news shared by the sector, for the sector. Also, we will be sharing news with great news outlets like CannaBiz-Africa

We want to help you share stories that shape South Africa’s cannabis lifestyle community so they are documented, discovered, and heard.
