MJBizDaily estimates the global cannabis market to be a $10B-12B+ industry by the end of 2018. This number could easily double or even triple as Canada’s recreational market takes off and other countries come online.
The U.S. is the largest market dollar-wise at the moment, but Canada is leading in so many other areas.
In Germany, medical marijuana is part of the healthcare system and is a very interesting model to watch.
Israel has long been a leader in marijuana research, they are now trying to develop an export market around the world.
Uruguay was the first nation to legalize recreational marijuana. Canada was the first G7 to legalize.
UK, Italy and Portugal are quickly expanding.
