The legal cannabis industry in North America is being driven by the growing medical applications of the product in the region and the implementation of favourable government policies. Within North America, the United States legal cannabis market is supported by the thriving medical cannabis industry. The United States medical cannabis industry accounts for a majority of the regional market share and is further expected to continue its dominance over the forecast period. It is estimated that 33% of the United States consumers utilise cannabis for both recreational and medical reasons. As CBD derived from hemp is legal to import and purchase in all 50 US states, it is expected to create an increased demand for industrial hemp, which in turn, will aid the overall industry growth in the region.
Properties and Applications
Cannabis, commonly called marijuana, is an annual flowering plant belonging to the Cannabaceae family, which is native to Central Asia and the Indian subcontinent. The plant is used for industrial, recreational, as well as medical purposes, owing to its psychoactive properties.

Market Analysis
The legal cannabis market in North America is being driven by the growing demand for cannabis for medical as well as recreational purposes, supported by favourable government policies. In the region, the cannabinoid is treated as a supplement, which is aiding the industry growth. The growing geriatric population and significant patient pool in the region are driving the product demand for medicinal purposes.
Within the United States, more states are moving towards the legalisation of cannabis and, thus, its applications are expected to increase significantly, especially in the medical industry. Different research studies have demonstrated the potential benefits of cannabis in cancer treatment, thus, increasing its demand for cancer therapy. Further, over 100 million Americans suffering from chronic pain rely on opioid painkillers such as Vicodin. Medical cannabis is found to have the potential to fight this opioid epidemic in the United States. As the FDA called for a ban on Opana ER, an opioid painkiller, due to public health reasons in April 2018, cannabis-derived drugs are increasingly being considered a substitute to opioids as they possess no risk of overdose and are less-addictive.
The growing cannabis-related research and development activities and new product launch by manufacturers and leading companies will further aid the legal cannabis industry growth in the future. The growing public support for the legalisation of marijuana and the shift towards hemp-based products are contributing to the industry growth. The growing popularity of CBD hemp oil, which is emerging as an essential part of a healthy lifestyle, is expected to aid the industry growth over the forecast period.
