In recent years, the cannabis industry has been taking other perspectives, where its medicinal use stands out, already recognized and legalized in many countries around the world, as well as its recreational use: In the US, 29 states allow the medicinal use of cannabis , while its recreational use is legal in 18 states. Latin America has not been left behind, since countries like Mexico, Colombia and recently Argentina, have laws that promote their development.
In our country meanwhile, the study “Cannabis Latam Report”affirms that Chile could be the largest market in the region, and within the same document, it is reported that Targo Consulting estimates that there are 88,000 Chilean patients who use it medicinally, with an annual demand projection of 34 tons and a potential market of $186 million.
