Over recent months, the introduction of a new legislature regulating cannabis policy in California reflects an essential need for more legally licensed businesses in the state. Estimated to report over $3 Billion in sales for 2019, consumer demand is indisputable. California is home to the largest cannabis market in the nation and the world. Growing health concerns over the vaping crisis widely reported in the media of late reportedly linked to illegally procured products has spurred action from policymakers. These new developments are intended to encourage cannabis entrepreneurs and local municipalities to participate in the legal market.
