In Colorado, recreational marijuana sells have skyrocketed. In fact, consumers spent more on recreational marijuana than medicinal marijuana. This lends credibility to its legalization. With its lucrative outcome, it is possible that other states may soon hop on the legalized recreational marijuana bandwagon.
Colorado legalized small amounts of recreational marijuana earlier in 2014, and soon sales were booming. These sales not only helped those wanting the product, but it also helped create jobs in the community, and tax dollars. Of course, legalized marijuana is taxed, and those tax dollars help with everything from infrastructure to roads. While only time will tell if this is a “fad” or I the sales will stay high, for the time being the extra jobs and tax dollars are something that many other states are looking at seriously.
Even if your state is not embracing legalized recreational marijuana, they may be one of the states that offers up legalized medicinal marijuana. If so, you should seriously consider offering it in your business. It is still a lucrative product, and a much wanted product.
