The European Cannabis Report
We estimate that the total conservative value of the cannabis industry in Europe’s eight largest markets is approximately €18b. Of course, most of this is still illegal but it demonstrates the potential in the legal market over the coming years. Medicinal alone is expected to grow at 15% per annum for the next three years.
Yet we can count the number of companies operating in the legal space on one hand, so Europe is a green field opportunity for both entrepreneurs and investors.
