NEW YORK, April 6, 2017 /PRNewswire/ --
FinancialBuzz.com News Commentary
Increasing demand for medical cannabis continues to boost the cannabidiol (CBD) market. CBD is one of the active cannabinoids
in the cannabis plant and is considered to have significant medical benefits. According to a report published by The Hemp
Business Journal, the U.S. CBD market was worth $202 million in 2015 and is expected to reach
$2.1 billion by 2020. The report estimated that $450 million of the
projected sales will be from hemp based sources and the rest from marijuana sources. The expanding market is also driven by
growing acceptance of cannabis. 28 U.S. states have legalized cannabis for medical use. Naturally Splendid Enterprises Ltd. (OTC:
NSPDF) (TSX-V: NSP), MCig Inc. (OTC: MCIG), American Cannabis Company, Inc. (OTC: AMMJ), Mountain High Acquisitions Corp. (OTC:
MYHI), Surna Inc. (OTC: SRNA)
Matt Karnes from Greenwave Advisors stated, "In terms of the CBD market size, I estimate an
almost $3 billion market by 2021. Right now there are 15 states that allow CBD only - this is in
addition to the 28 states plus DC that have legalized medical marijuana." A report by Forbes points out there is evidence that
traditional cannabis users are willing to give CBD a try. Outco, the largest licensed cultivator in Southern California published data that shows 38% of users and non-users claimed they wanted to learn more
about CBD oil.
