The cannabidiol (CBD) edibles market is projected to explode between 2020 and 2027 due to the rapidly increasing number of countries decriminalizing and legalizing cannabis. As the countries take on new regulations regarding cannabis and as citizens begin to accept cannabis socially, the edibles market is then presented with opportunities for growth. Data Bridge Market Research has analyzed the market in order to account for this forecast in growth and profitability.
The CBD edibles market growth is predicted to be driven by (1) increasing popularity for recreational use, (2) increasing use of CBD for beauty, health, and treatment, (3) increasing demand for cannabis products, and (4) the increase in healthcare expenditure on cannabis. Though a decline of available investment funds in the cannabis industry is forecast to hinder the growth of the market between 2020 and 2027 alongside high costs of CBD products and stringent regulations, the CBD edibles market is still expected to grow exponentially.
