WHY CANNABIS BRANDS NEED UNIQUE CUSTOM LABELS

A Look Into CBD Labels

In 2018 the legal Cannabis market grew to 10.4 billion in the United States alone and is projected to reach an estimated 20 billion in 2020. Medical marijuana is legal in 33 states, and recreational cannabis is now allowed in 10 states.

Small and medium brands are entering the market at a rapid pace as the booming Cannabis industry redefines its image while going mainstream. The widespread introduction of legalization initiatives in 2018 has created a fast demand for cannabis packaging design.

With safety at the core of cannabis packaging, its primary role is to comply with the ever-changing state-regulated laws. Creative and innovative label design has become equally important with companies moving away from the traditional cannabis culture. Brand recognition among consumers will ultimately play a big role in brand growth, product development, andover-all consumer product trends.
