The cannabis market in [the United States](https://cannabusinessplans.com/u-s-cannabis-market/) and [Canada](https://cannabusinessplans.ca/canadian-cannabis-market/) is estimated to be about \$46.5 billion while the remaining \$10.5 billion would go to other markets. The largest growth rate is predicted within the rest-of-world markets with a projected \$2 billion in 2030. Key Trends: - The initial decision by many U.S. states and Canada to create medical-only cannabis regulations prompted many other countries to act similarly while legalization of adult recreational use in Canada and in nearly 50% of U.S. states triggered a second wave of legalizing laws internationally to increase access to cannabis products. - Reports prepared by London-based advisory group Prohibition Partners value the European legal cannabis market at €516 million in 2023 and €1,089 million in 2024. Total cannabis sales are forecast to grow with a CAGR of 45% to reach €2.1 billion by 2027. - Oceania’s legal cannabis market is forecast to grow from about \$100 million in 2021 to \$1.1 billion in 2027, the 4th largest in the world. Australians spent around \$234 million in 2022, and cannabis sales almost doubled in 2023, while 2024 sales exceeded AUD\$750 million. - The size of the Latin America and the Caribbean (excl U.S. territories) cannabis market had an estimated market value of around \$440 million in 2024 and is projected to be driven by Brazil, Mexico and Argentina with a CAGR of 16.74%. Those countries are expected to account for 12% of legal cannabis spending outside the U.S. and Canada. - According to a New Frontier Data report, Africa with over 10% of global cannabis demand will rank 5th after North America, Europe, Oceania and Latin America. * We offer professional [cannabis business plan templates](https://cannabusinessplans.com/shop/), including pro forma financials and projections to help you know how much money it will cost to start your business and how much money you can make by starting and operating your 100% legally compliant cannabis business.
