NetworkNewsWire Editorial Coverage: The Canadian government’s plan to push through legalization of marijuana for recreational purposes by mid-2018 figures to deal a serious blow to the existing black market. However, industry analysts are increasingly skeptical of the ability of the country’s Licensed Producers to keep pace with this forecast spike in demand. As noted in a recent article published by CBC, “Unless something changes quickly, the supply of available pot come legalization next July, will be inadequate, and the black market will continue to thrive.” ABcann Global Corp. (OTCQB: ABCCF) (TSX.V: ABCN) (ABCCF Profile), with its healthy cash position and aggressive expansion plans, is one company seeking to address these supply concerns, particularly in the medicinal market. Joined in the space by Canopy Growth Corp. (OTC: TWMJF) (TSX: WEED), Aurora Cannabis, Inc. (OTCQX: ACBFF) (TSX: ACB), Aphria, Inc. (OTCQB: APHQF) (TSX: APH) and Medical Marijuana, Inc.

The backbone of the company’s operations, which focus on the development of consistent pharmaceutical-grade products that are organically grown and pesticide-free, is its proprietary growing technology. As noted on its website, ABcann’s products are always free of chemicals and produced in small batches to ensure high quality standards. This commitment to quality has helped ABcann steer clear of the recent wave of product recalls in the Canadian cannabis market that has affected many of the industry’s biggest names.
