Hello all
I own about +20 hectares of unused agriculture lands in an African country where cultivation of cannabis for export has been legalized in recent years (and I have access to another 100 hectares through family and friends) .
Reading up on cannabis laws of different countries, I now realize that even when (medical)cannabis is legal, most countries still prohibit the importation of cannabis.
Instead of going through the hassle of setting up companies in different countries and obtaining a license in each and every country, I was thinking about selling to a big distributor.
So if anyone is in this industry or has in depth knowledge, comment below or shoot me a DM if you want to stay anonymous.
USA you can’t even transport over state lines legally never mind importing from another country. California, Oregon, and Colorado all over produce cannabis and markets have bottomed out on cannabis flower, in fact growers in thailand are getting pissed california growers keep illegally shipping to their country cratering their market as well. Take in the blackmarket and the us is an exporter not an importer of cannabis. Part of the issue is energy is cheap here for indoor guys, and much of the western US is perfect conditions for outdoor growing on scale (the emerald triangle shares many similarities to the Kush mountain range in terms of climate thats why outdoor goes nuts there). Africa you would have a much better time when its legal shipping to humid areas were outdoor growing in that country would be hard like Brazil or northern Europe and south east Asia as outdoor growing allows you to undercut indoor growers but the US has a surplus of outdoor growers so I would consider the US to be the toughest market for an exporter to even attempt.
