ArcView said: "Legal cannabis-derived edible products, from candy and chocolate to infused beverages, is a sector worth watching over the next few years," the report stated. Other highlights from their report were that Edibles are projected to grow from 12 percent to 14 percent of the total cannabis market by 2022, while flower drops from 50 percent to 36 percent and that edibles' share of the total cannabis market has already more than doubled, from 5.4 percent in 2011 to the current 12 percent.   Active companies in the industry making moves to ready that include:  IONIC Brands Corp.

(OTCPK: CNPOF) (TSX-V: RIV).

Another report from BDS Analytics added that the place where these increased edibles will be sold will be/has been in dispensaries. They projected that overall, CBD sales are expected to surge to $20 billion by 2024; up substantially from the $1.9 billion in 2018. They track current and ongoing retail sales as well as consumer behavior.

Origin House (CSE: OH.CN) (OTCQX: ORHOF) recently announced that it has divested its 5.1% equity interest (the "Interest") in Alternative Medical Enterprises LLC ("AltMed") for total consideration of US$6 Million. As Cresco Labs Inc. ("Cresco") is prohibited under state law from acquiring additional positions in the Florida market, this divestment was a pre-closing condition to the Company's previously announced plan of arrangement (the "Arrangement") pursuant to which Cresco has agreed to acquire all of the issued and outstanding shares of Origin House.

"With one of the final conditions to closing the Arrangement with Cresco now complete, we look forward to proceeding to drive value for shareholders as a combined company, upon the expiration of the anti-trust waiting period," commented Marc Lustig, Chairman and CEO of Origin House. "The sale of the remaining AltMed interest marks a significant milestone in the continued process whereby Origin House has monetized non-core holdings resulting in both substantial returns for shareholders and additional cash that has fueled the Company's growth."

MedMen Enterprises Inc. (CSE: MMEN.CN) (OTCQX: MMNFF) recently announced that MedMen pre-roll singles and multipacks are available for purchase at its recently-opened West Palm Beach location. Available strains include "White Widow," "Bubblegum OG," and "Dr Who."  To bring these products to the West Palm Beach community, the Company's state-of-the-art cultivation and production facility located in the city of Eustis completed its first harvest of smokable flower in the state of Florida.

"Medical cannabis patients in Florida have fought long and hard to have smokable flower as an alternative for pain relief, and we are proud to offer them access to it," said Adam Bierman, MedMen Co-Founder and CEO. "We look forward to continue working with regulators to bring safe, regulated and high-quality flower to other Florida communities where MedMen will operate in the future."

Trulieve Cannabis Corp. (CSE: TRUL.CN) (OTCPK: TCNNF), a leading and top-performing cannabis company in the United States, recently announced the appointment of Peter T. Healy to its Board of Directors.  With continuing growth of the Company in Florida and the expansion of operations into new U.S. states, the addition of Peter Healy broadens the knowledge and experience base of Trulieve's Board of Directors and further supports the execution of the Company's strategic vision.

"We are very pleased to welcome Peter to the Trulieve Board," said Kim Rivers, CEO of Trulieve. "Having advised a number of boards of public and private companies alike, and with a proven track record in financing, M&A, and cross-border listings, Trulieve will benefit from the unique knowledge and perspectives that Peter offers as we continue to bring high-quality products and an industry-leading customer experience to cannabis markets throughout the United States ."

Canopy Rivers Inc. (TSX-V: RIV) (OTCPK: CNPOF) recently announced that its 49%-owned joint venture, PharmHouse Inc.  ("PharmHouse"), has received a cultivation licence from Health Canada.
