All eyes are on Canada and the burgeoning North American cannabis market as the flood gates open and nationwide recreational legalization north of the U.S. border throws the recent $47.3 billion by 2027 forecast from Arcview Market Research into clear relief.

  • Historic end of cannabis prohibition creates unprecedented market forces
  • CBD could outpace broader market
  • Direct selling in the digital age more relevant than ever
  • Overlapping cultural vectors among core wellness and cannabis consumers
  • Biopharma potential immense, nutritional potential immediately accessible commercially

Already running hot at $9.2 billion last year, the North American cannabis market appears to be just getting started. Youngevity International, Inc. (NASDAQ: YGYI) (YGYI Profile) is a particularly interesting player in this space that deserves further examination considering the company’s strong logistical footprint in direct selling, the success of a shrewd and comprehensive growth model in ground coffee retail, and an established presence as one of the most trusted names in nutritional supplements. INSYS Therapeutics, Inc.
