DUBLIN, Dec 3, 2018 /PRNewswire/ --

The "Cannabis Market by Product Type (Flower, Concentrates), Compound (THC-Dominant, CBD-Dominant, and Balanced THC & CBD), Application (Medical and Recreational), and Region (North America, South America, Europe, and Row) - Global Forecast to 2023" report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com's offering.

The cannabis market size is expected to grow from USD 10.3 billion in 2018 to USD 39.4 billion by 2023, at a Compound Annual Growth Rate (CAGR) of 30.7% during the forecast period.

The cannabis market is driven by various factors such as the growing medicinal application of cannabis and the increasing legalization of cannabis. However, a complex regulatory structure for the use of cannabis can hinder the growth of the market.

Cannabis is a drug derived from the cannabis sativa, cannabis indica, and hybrid strains. Although cannabis is composed of different cannabinoids, the two main cannabinoids that are considered to be the most active compounds are tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), the psychoactive compound, and cannabidiol (CBD), the non-psychoactive compound. The market definition for cannabis, in this study, takes into consideration both medical as well as recreational cannabis.

The complex regulatory structure for the usage of cannabis is restraining the market growth. In this report, the cannabis market has been studied on the basis of product type, application, compound, and region. The North American market accounted for the largest share in 2017. The market in this region is primarily driven by growth in the US and Canadian markets.

The market in this region is driven by the increasing legalization of cannabis for both medical and recreational purposes all over North America and the increasing awareness among consumers regarding the health benefits of cannabis. The market is further fueled by the presence of major cannabis giants such as Canopy Growth Corporation, Aurora Cannabis Inc., and Medical Marijuana Inc. who are continuously investing and collaborating for the development of new products to fulfill the consumer demand.
