Canadian Cannabis Market Is Set To Explode
Public support for recreational cannabis is at an all-time high. This support will lead to the passage of legislation legalizing recreational cannabis across all of Canada. Deloitte estimates the size of the Canadian legal cannabis market at $8 billion.
Cannabis Will Be In Short Supply
Demand for cannabis in Canada, both recreational and medical, is expected to top 1.32 million pounds. Currently, the entire industry produces roughly 20,000 pounds annually. There is around 1 million pounds of annual cannabis production that needs to be accounted for.
In order to meet this growing demand, Abcann Global (OTCQB:ABCCF) is increasing production capacity at a rapid pace. While its current facilities total only 40,000 sq. feet of growing space, multiple new facilities are under construction that will boost total growing space to over 200,000 sq feet. The company is in the process of developing the land for a future facility with 1.2 million square feet of growing space.
