WHAT’S THE NEXT TRANSFORMATIVE STEP FOR THE AUSTRALIAN CANNABIS INDUSTRY?

From Street Hustle To Bustling Business

Ask any betting soul what they think of a team that comes in fifth and you’re likely to get a bitter laugh or colorful dismissal — unless the player they’re wagering on is the nation’s emerging cannabis industry. When it comes to Australia’s potential place in the pot race, fifth in the world looks like a straight-up winner.

That’s where experts project Australia’s legal cannabis market to be in 2027, anticipating revenues of $1.2 billion, up from $52 million last year.

The combined legal and illegal market is estimated to be a whopping $4 billion-plus. A roundup from the World Law Group notes that some of Canada’s prestige cannabis firms, including Canopy Growth, Aphria, Cronos Group, and Aurora are doubling down on Australia’s medical cannabis programs. “In the public markets space, 6 of the top 10 cannabis-related ASX companies have market caps greater than $50 million. Althea Group’s IPO on 21 September 2018, backed by Aphria, raised $19.6 million and is already the fourth-largest listed cannabis-related company on the ASX,” it reads.

How To Clean Up - Sanitary Franchises To Invest In

It’s a tangible part of this new world we’ve entered after emerging from lockdown. You can smell it in corridors and in shops, and it’s a selling point for hotels reopening.

SOFT OPENING - CONSUMER CONFIDENCE A KEY FACTOR IN RECOVERY

As states and territories reopened their economies in various phases throughout May and June, it became clear that simply being open is not enough to get firing on all cylinders again. First, there are safety regulations limiting how many patrons a business can serve at a time. Just as important is consumer confidence. If shoppers don’t feel safe visiting a business, they’re not going to, and there’s no forcing them. Some services requiring intimate personal contact have an even harder time with this. Just because someone can get a massage doesn’t mean they’re comfortable with it.

COMING OUT OF OUR CAVES - LIFE IN PUBLIC AS RESTRICTIONS EASE

The pubs reopened to great rejoicing and some free beer as coronavirus restrictions eased across Australia, although unfortunately, it was too late for millions of litres of suds that had to be tipped down the drain. It was strange to be out, but it felt good once you got used to it. Rules vary by state and territory, but over the past several weeks, Aussies have been able to dine out, go to holiday homes, and gather in small groups once more. Lockdown isn’t lockdown anymore, but that doesn’t mean “normal” is back. Here’s where things stand.
