Global Legal Marijuana Market Overview

The development of medical marijuana as an alternative to traditional medicine and the rise in social acceptance of marijuana are the key factors that have boosted the growth of the Legal Marijuana Market. Multiple medicines have been commercially approved by the US Food and Drug Administration due to the proven medicinal advantages of specific marijuana-based formulations. The increased frequency of cancer has resulted in an increase in the number of people undergoing chemotherapy, the majority of whom are suffering nausea. These are studied to be nullified with the help of THC-based medications.

Numerous THC and CBD-based medicines for the treatment of neuropathic pain and muscle spasms have been approved or are undergoing clinical studies. The rising incidence of diseases is fuelling market expansion, as medicinal marijuana is recognized to serve as an alternative treatment to its traditional counterparts. Changes in government policy are also likely to drive up demand for legal marijuana. Several new start-ups are venturing into R&D, cannabis testing, and manufacturing. Many provinces in Canada are anticipating the privatization of cannabis retail stores.

Many provinces that formerly picked a single supplier are now inviting applications from multiple suppliers. Over the projected period, these factors are expected to drive the market. However, various countries have imposed strict rules and regulations regarding the application of marijuana owing to its negative side effect, which can hamper the medical marijuana market. In addition, the usage of marijuana for recreational purposes is expected to bring a negative impact on human health that can impede the cannabis market during the assessment tenure. Nevertheless, the emergence of cannabis legalization in the Asia Pacific can create a lucrative growth opportunity for the market.

Key Developments in Legal Marijuana Market

  • In December 2020, Columbia opened its first medical marijuana dispensary called 3Fifteen Primo Cannabis.
