The past year has seen substantial growth in the Californian hemp industry, and with that growth came challenges for the state’s governing bodies. The state is home to one of the largest legalized recreational cannabis markets in the world, and Californian authorities have reportedly issued over 10,000 licenses to producers, processors and retailers involved in the cannabis industry. This includes those working with hemp, a nonpsychotropic form of cannabis, and CBD, a chemical derived from hemp.The swift growth of the state’s industry almost triggered a crisis this spring, as thousands of temporary licenses were set to expire before authorities had time to process permanent licenses. The state senate stepped in to extend the duration of temporary licenses and protect law-abiding business owners from a bureaucracy struggling to keep up with demand.
For companies working with hemp and related products, California is possibly the most business-friendly place in the world to be based. The state is headquarters for a wide range of companies working in the sector, from producers and retailers to companies providing support services, such as Sugarmade Inc. (OTC:SGMD). https://www.otcmarkets.com/stock/SGMD/news
