The North American Cannabis Report
The North American Cannabis Report is the first and only free-to-access report on the cannabis industry in the United States and Canada, a market worth a potential $47.3 billion by 2024. Although the US is currently the most profitable cannabis industry in the world, the lack of legislative clarity at the federal level is disrupting the industry. Canada has taken a leadership position at the international level, having legalised recreational cannabis in October 2018. The market is set to grow at an unprecedented rate over the next five years, as legislation shifts in favour of liberalisation and consumer industries begin to move in on the cannabis space.
The North American Cannabis Report examines:

The Asian Cannabis Report™
Asia, the world’s most populous continent, has a relatively low prevalence of cannabis use at just 2% annually. However, this is the equivalent to an estimated 85.5 million people, making Asia a key market in the long-term expansion plans of producers, investors and operators. As the historically conservative stance on cannabis begins to soften, the medical market alone could be worth as much as US$5.8 billion by 2024.

The African Cannabis Report™
While cannabis remains illegal in most African countries, many nations are keen to embrace cultivation as a way to boost their economies. Cannabis is already widely grown and consumed across the continent with production currently standing at around 38,000 tonnes and consumption rates at 13.2%. While any path towards a legalised and regulated cannabis industry presents a number of significant challenges due to opaque laws and inconsistent enforcement, Africa’s climate, affordable land and low-cost labour offer enormous opportunities in a market that could exceed $US7.1 billion by 2023.
The African Cannabis Report™ examines:
• Commercial and business opportunities in 9 African markets
• Legislation and the latest regulatory guidelines across the region
