Industry Reports Target CBD Edibles to Lead Market’s Growth and Quickly Rising Revenues

Written by Shared Content

PALM BEACH, FloridaApril 11, 2019 /PRNewswire/ –Most investors and executives in the CBD products industry are aware that multiple revenue projections, fueled by consumer acceptance, expect the CBD market to grow faster that they even could have hoped for… but there is one sector that is expected to show substantial growth and that is edibles. An article in an industry publication said: “There are product categories that plod along slowly for many years before suddenly catching on. Then there is CBD… Three years ago, CBD sales barely registered as a product category. Today, it is an industry that produces hundreds of millions of dollars in revenues, with most analysts forecasting many billions of dollars in sales within the next few years. But that only scratches the surface, because much of the action in the CBD movement takes place in non-grocery settings, such as stores that specialize in alternative health products or oils and tinctures.    Active Companies from around the market with current developments this week include:  White Label Liquid, Inc. (OTC: WLAB), Neptune Wellness Solutions Inc. (NASDAQ: NEPT), Terra Tech Corp. (OTC: TRTC), Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC: MJNA), mCig, Inc. (OTC: MCIG).

Forbes also chimed in on what can happen in the edibles market, in an article headlined: “Edibles Are The Next Big Thing For Pot Entrepreneurs.” The article said: “As more states legalize cannabis for recreational use, edibles will become a huge market for entrepreneurs. In California alone, consumers gobbled up more than $180 million worth of marijuana-infused food and drinks last year, 10% of the state’s cannabis sales, according to Archview Market Research.   And it’s not just California that’s seeing a growing edibles market. Sales of pot-infused treats increased 121% last year in Washington state, where recreational marijuana is legal, according to cannabis analytics firm Headset Inc. And since Colorado first allowed recreational marijuana use, sales tripled from $17 million in the first quarter of 2014 to $53million in the third quarter of 2016.

White Label Liquid, Inc. (OTCPK: WLAB) BREAKING NEWS:  White Label Liquid, a leading provider of premium private-label services for the cannabis industry, reported fiscal year 2018 financial results, with the Company recording revenues of $7,006,110. That number greatly exceeded by over $5 million the revenue reported for 2017, demonstrating the Company’s profitability with a 250 percent year-over-year increase in revenue earned.

The Company believes that the strong end-of-the-year results further position it to be a reliable partner to those seeking to be successful in the burgeoning CBD industry throughout 2019 and beyond.

“We had a great year, but it’s only just the beginning,” said White Label Liquid CEO Yaron Elkayam. “These numbers reflect not just the hard work of our partners all along our supply chain; they are also a reflection of the growing strength of the CBD industry.”

White Label Liquid’s expert team provides businesses looking to enter the CBD space with a variety of private label, hemp-derived CBD products to help them meet and exceed a broad range of their customer needs and desires. The Company recently announced that it had moved into a new 51,000-square-foot, all-in-one operations facility to manufacture CBD in-house, using industry standard, “good manufacturing practices” (“GMP”).  White Label Liquid, Inc. offers business owners cutting-edge solutions with CBD products that are available in over 20 categories and 300 SKU’s.     Read this and more news for WLAB at:    https://www.financialnewsmedia.com/news-wlab/
