According to a report provided by New Frontier Data, the legal cannabis market was worth an estimated USD 8.3 Billion in 2017 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 14.7% and reach an estimated USD 25 Billion by 2025. The medical cannabis industry is projected to grow at a CAGR of 11.8% through 2025, as sales of products for recreational use are set to grow at an 18.4% CAGR, from USD 3.2 Billion in 2017 to USD 12.5 Billion by the end of the forecast period.

Crop Infrastructure Corp. (OTC: CRXPF), Leafbuyer Technologies, Inc. (OTC: LBUY), GB Sciences, Inc. (OTC: GBLX), United Cannabis Corporation (OTC: CNAB), MPX Bioceutical Corporation (OTC: MPXEF).
Citing another report from Deloitte, nearly two-thirds of current cannabis consumers are likely to buy cannabis products from legal channels. Jennifer Lee, lead partner managing the Cannabis sector for Deloitte, said, "Most current and likely cannabis consumers want a variety of products offered at reasonable prices from suppliers who can vouch for the safety and origin of those products. Cannabis companies will need to have secure supply chains to protect the quality and integrity of their products, and retailers will need to meet consumer expectations, including providing a positive, engaging retailing experience and protecting the privacy of their customers, especially online."
Crop Infrastructure Corp. (OTC: CRXPF) is also listed on the Canadian Securities Exchange under the ticker (CSE: CROP). Just earlier today, the company announced breaking news that it, "has entered in to a joint venture agreement whereby the company has a 49% interest in a zero-cost lease of a 217,000 sq. foot property ideally situated for future Cannabis production and extraction. The Five acres of prime agricultural land has been secured in the Westmoreland Parish, some of the most fertile land in Jamaica. The company is in the process of identifying a suitable tenant licensee for the project. The company plans to license the brand, 'Hempire Jamaica' to the tenant and has acquired the domain http://www.HempireJamaica.com.
CROP Director & CEO Michael Yorke states: "CROP continues to build its global footprint by securing this strategic joint venture in Jamaica. Many countries are now introducing new licensing and legislative regimes for CBD and cannabis and are prime entry points for our growing organization. Jamaica is of particular interest as its licensing regime allows for a full suite of genetics which will give our tenant growers the advantage of being able to provide buyers with a broad variety of CBD and THC end products."
Jamaica has over 2.8 million residents and approximately three million visitors each year. In a report from the Jamaica Observer, Edmund Bartlett, the current Jamaican minister of tourism, estimated the global marijuana tourism market at $494 billion. With health and wellness tourism identified by Bartlett as an area of focus under the ministry's plan to expand to five million annual visitors, expect the country to continue to cultivate its cannabis connections.
A 420intel.com article quotes Audley Shaw, Jamaica's minister of commerce, industry, agriculture, and fisheries talking about exporting cannabis and creating an industry that will develop the pharmaceutical potentialities of the weed. The minister is not discounting the possibility of exporting recreational marijuana, as more and more countries legalize the substance. In the United States, 30 states and the District of Columbia have legalized cannabis for recreational or medical purposes and Shaw believes it is a trend that will eventually sweep the nation."
Leafbuyer Technologies, Inc. (OTCQB: LBUY) is a leading cannabis technology platform. On July 19, 2018, the Company announced that sales growth has increased by over 50% from Q4 2017 to Q4 2018.

John Valle, Director of Sales for Leafbuyer Technologies Inc. said: "Expansion plans started 9 months ago in Oregon, Washington, California, Nevada, and Arizona, and we are capitalizing on those markets.
