The U.S. cannabis industry is still in its infancy, even though states began engaging with legalization in one form or another in the late 1990s. Today, many opportunities exist for individuals and businesses that want to engage in the industry. Some want to directly own licensed businesses, while others prefer to keep the industry at an arm’s length and merely profit from it.

In the midst of the COVID-19 pandemic, 31 states declared some form of cannabis to be “essential.” However, it would be naive to think that means the industry is invulnerable to a COVID-related shutdown. If last summer’s vape scare taught us anything, it’s that politicians will pull the plug on the cannabis supply chain if it is believed to be a vector for COVID-19 transmission.
