€354 Million Worth of Unlicensed Medical Cannabis Forecast to be Sold in Europe in 2022

Dublin – The “European Cannabis Report with Market Sizing Data & Adult-Use Cannabis Supplement” report has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

2021 was another huge year for the liberalisation and mainstreaming of cannabis in Europe.

Legislation, regulations and market developments continued to evolve for the better. Many countries continued to improve their medical cannabis access schemes, and the publisher estimates that €354 million worth of unlicensed medical cannabis will be sold in Europe in 2022, and this could reach to €2.3 billion in 2026.

CBD products are continuing their path towards recognition as fully-legal consumer packaged goods (CPGs). As of 2022, several novel foods applications for CBD have been validated by the European Commission.

But, the story which is drawing most international attention is the upcoming liberalisation of adult-use cannabis in Europe, with the ruling coalition of Germany promising full legalisation and commercialisation of adult-use cannabis in this legislative term. Legal sales are set to start in Switzerland by the end of 2022 followed shortly by those in the Netherlands.
