The Cannabis-Infused Beverages Market
The global cannabis beverages market is expected to reach US$4.46 billion by 2025, according to a report by Zion Market Research. Market expansion is being fueled by the growing demand for wellness products, as more consumers seek healthier alternatives to inhaling cannabis.
Health Canada’s amended regulations to the Cannabis Act governing cannabis-edibles came into force on October 17, 2019. In preparation for the new regulations, alcoholic beverage companies, such as Constellation Brands (NYSE:STZ) and Molson-Coors (NYSE:TAP;TSX:TAP), formed agreements with cannabis companies to enter the beverages market. Hill Street’s alcohol-free brands have already generated significant brand awareness for their products, with roughly 9 percent of Canadian consumers being aware of the products according to a March 2019 press release from the company.
