In A Haze When It Comes To Cannabis Business Funding? Here's Your Solutions

Information on Cannabis industry financing for public and private firms in the marijuana sector

Lenders for cannabis companies , in the past, have been , safe to say, hard to find! We suppose that Bob Dylan was right, ' the times they are a changin' ! Financial markets headlines in Canada are often dominated these days by marijuana business financing firms as the race for equity and market dominance is in full force.

We'll point out that this same story isn't playing out as well, or as quickly south of the Cdn border in the U.S.

Growth for any business will often require external financing - coming from both equity and debt and cash flow sources. As owners and shareholders alike learn very quickly , equity is expensive, more so when your business is still in the process of proving it's full potential. Why is that? Simply because you're forced to compare the interest you would pay over the history of the business against the profits you would have to sacrifice over that same period.
