Hemp Market Report

The global hemp market is predicted to remarkably benefit from increase in legalization and liberalization of hemp cultivation with permitted level of tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) content. Hemp fiber gains massive demand in the textiles industry, especially for the manufacture of various industrial and consumer textiles, spun fibers, and yarns. Shivs are another type of hemp products that are adopted for the manufacture of insulating and construction materials and for animal bedding.

Hemp manufacturers are prophesied to make themselves stand out from the rest of the competition by setting new quality standards. In June 2019, US producer of cannabidiol (CBD) hemp, GenCanna received the Current Good Manufacturing Practices and Brand Reputation Compliance Global Standard for Food Safety certificates. Earlier that year, the company unveiled its first patentable THC-free non-genetically modified organisms (GMO) hemp genetics.

Favorable Government Policies to Bode Well for Global Market

The global hemp market is foreseen to gain growth with the increase in demand for hemp-based food products such as salad dressings, flour, dairy alternatives, and cooking oil. Demand for hemp could be driven by increased consumption of cookies, bread, and other bakery items. High awareness among consumers regarding the various benefits of hemp is expected to further push the demand in the global market. The allowance of THC content in hemp consumption, distribution, marketing, processing, and cultivation according to legislative procedures set as per the Industrial Hemp Act 2017, the 2014 Farm Bill, and U.S. Drug Enforcement Agency (DEA) policies is predicted to create opportunities.

After the completion of the project, the company will be vertically integrated in the market.
