After five years of legalization, cannabis science and industry continues to grow, with Colorado marijuana sales earning over $1.5 billion for the calendar year of 2017 and earning nearly $4.5 billion since 2014, according to the Colorado Department of Revenue.
“The science of cannabis is moving forward at lightning speed, and we’re really seeing developments coming from research that is moving the industry forward,” said Max Poling, the marketing manager of the Fort Collins Infinite Wellness Center.
Infinite Wellness Center is one of a handful of retail and medical cannabis dispensaries owned and operated in Fort Collins.
Even with federal backlash looming over the retail cannabis industry, new implementations including new forms of ingestion, and even things such as online ordering, continue to grow.
