2016 was a great year for the legal cannabis industry.
States that legalized recreational cannabis prior to 2017 saw a huge increase in tax revenues, job creation, and local economic activity. And this has resulted in a sort of “green rush” where we’re now seeing dozens of other states begin the process of legalization in some form.
As with any new and vibrant industry, however, there are some companies that simply stand out among the rest. These are the companies that will not only prove to be huge opportunities for investors, but huge opportunities for those who advocate the legalization of cannabis as a way to instigate positive social change while make a lot of money in the process.
So here are out top 5 legal cannabis companies to watch for 2017.
- Défoncé Chocolatier
- Hifi Farms
- Mirth Provisions
- Steep Hill Labs
- PROHBTD Media, Inc.
