Cannabis Franchising is a Reality at Multi-Unit Franchising Conference

ONE Cannabis, a Denver-Based Cannabis Franchisor, Exhibits at the Industry-Leading Event to Break Down Myths and Teach Franchising Pros about the Legal Cannabis Market

DENVER, March 21, 2019 /PRNewswire/ - North American cannabis buyers spent $9.2 billion in legal markets in 2017. Flash forward to a decade from now and the global industry is poised to reach $80 billion with North American consumption leading the way. In this time span, countless industry rookies will enter the industry, vying for their piece of the pie. The growth vehicle driving those who will succeed? Franchising. It is the most viable option for newcomers to become a part of this development, while mitigating much of the risk. ONE Cannabis™ is painting this reality next week for attendees at the Multi-Unit Franchising Conference.

Taking place March 24-27, the Las Vegas show is a must-attend event for multi-unit and multi-brand franchisees looking to build their businesses and flourish. The Denver-based cannabis franchisor is exhibiting at the conference to meet with prospective franchisees and franchise brokers about its franchise opportunities throughout North America. Interested parties can visit ONE Cannabis at Booth No. 123 or contact Justin at [email protected] to set up an introductory meeting.

"ONE Cannabis offers multi-unit franchisees the opportunity to diversify their investments and grab stake at the ground floor of a nascent industry, with industry leaders by their side," said ONE Cannabis COO Mike Weinberger, who has two decades of experience in franchising with both large, global franchisors and emerging franchise concepts.

"While marijuana legalization is increasing rapidly across the U.S.," he continued, "there are some established markets that are already seeing serious consolidation by large entities. If you've been thinking of investing in cannabis, now is the time to do it. A limited number of dispensary licenses are awarded in each market, so getting in early is key if you have a desired market in mind."
