Our take
Cannabis is the most widely produced and consumed drug in the world, but until relatively recently this market remained underground. An increasing number of US states, however, are opting to legalize cannabis, opening up a highly lucrative market opportunity that businesses are looking to capitalize on.
LeafLink has cemented its position as one of the major supply chain players in the growing legal cannabis market, connecting suppliers with retailers through its wholesale eCommerce marketplace. Currently it commands over a third of the US cannabis market, as well as having strong VC backing, and surpassing the $1 billion transaction threshold.
With federal legalization anticipated, this already fertile market is expected to continue swelling. LeafLink savvily opted to add logistical and payment solutions to its repertoire, as its eyes further regional expansions. In this way, the company has leveraged its comprehensive market dominance, further embedding its role as a go-to facilitator of cannabis sales. LeafLink has also seen impressive recent investment, that will be used to expand its suite of offerings.
