The COVID-19 Pandemic has Helped the Legal-Cannabis Market as Consumers Focus on Safety

[sexytimes]

The legal-cannabis industry is one of the few markets that has performed well in 2020. As industries from hospitality to airlines have dropped off, the legal cannabis industry has performed nicely. As consumers focus on safety over price, cannabis has been a promising industry.

The legal-cannabis industry has done well during the Pandemic lockdown, and a reduction in activity in the black market has also occurred. The legal cannabis market is approximately only a quarter the size of the illegal cannabis market, and business is believed to be moving from the black market to dispensaries. The Pandemic has refocused consumer's mindset from the cheapest product to the safest one. This perception has aided dispensaries, and with the increasing flow of money, supply and sourcing issues can be fixed that made 2019 a challenging year.

Cannabis is an essential product for medical consumption, and dispensaries have been allowed to operate as COVID-19 has locked down industries around the world. According to studies, citizens around the world have prioritized safety (and perceived safety) over product price, and are patronizing dispensaries.

The establishment and strengthening of the cannabis market during the lockdown can set the industry on track to make long-term gains. Last year was rough for the industry, and supply and sourcing issues were the growing pains that made publically traded companies decline in profit. Good times ahead.

I have just gotten into legal recreational use here, myself, and am from Massachusetts. I am hoping that sooner or later, the black cannabis market will go away; after all, why is it needed? After the whole Dank Vapes disaster, it should be abolished if you ask me.
