Influence of COVID-19 Outbreak on Cannabis Industry Software Industry Development

Several States in the United States declared cannabis dispensaries to be an essential basic business during the epidemic, allowing them to remain open during the implementation of the home quarantine order. The global novel coronavirus epidemic almost shut down most American enterprises in March and April, while cannabis dispensaries were declared as basic businesses in 8 of the 11 States where recreational cannabis has been legalized. Cannabis sales also increased significantly during the epidemic in the United States. The sharp increase in cannabis sales shows that the demand for cannabis is increasing. In order to supply more cannabis, more people will produce cannabis, which can promote the development of cannabis software industry.
Most companies are accustomed to financial services, and cannabis - related enterprises have been excluded from the mainstream. In fact, in many aspects, such as enterprise loans, payroll services and electronic payment methods (including credit cards, which are not accepted by most pharmacies), the cannabis industry is still restricted, not only the enterprises that directly contact with cannabis, but also the auxiliary companies related to the cannabis industry, and the income related to cannabis may make them rejected by banks. Many local banks and credit cooperatives have relevant customers in the cannabis industry. However, the economic downturn caused by the epidemic has brought tremendous pressure to the country. The Export Development Board of Canada and the Commercial Development Bank of Canada issued a statement saying that all legal enterprises will be eligible for the Commercial Credit Availability Plan (BCAP), and cannabis enterprises are among them. The cannabis industry has played an active role in the epidemic, and the cannabis industry will get a chance to turn over again in the financial service field.

Drivers

Many states in the United States are promoting the legalization of cannabis, which has led to the rapid development of the US cannabis industry.
In 1969, only 12% of Americans supported the legalization of cannabis. In 2017, the support rate has reached 64%. The younger the generation, the higher the acceptance of cannabis. Popular support is pushing the legalization of cannabis in the United States. As of 2019, 33 states in the United States have legalized medicinal cannabis, and 11 of them have also passed bills to allow the legal consumption and/or sale of recreational cannabis. In the second half of this year, another six states will make new progress in legalizing cannabis. Three states-New Jersey, Arizona and South Dakota-are expected to be legalized for adult use in the November voting. The other three states-New York, Connecticut, and Rhode Island-have pending bills that may pass the legislature to legalize adult use of cannabis.
With the expansion of the legalization of cannabis in the United States, more companies, patients, consumers and governments must have the required tracking and compliance technology, and cannabis industry software that can effectively manage cannabis sales will usher in a larger market.

Limitations

One of the main obstacles facing cannabis-related companies and their investors is financial regulation.
Even in countries where licensed cannabis is nominally legal, business owners and investors face difficulties in obtaining financial and banking support. On the one hand, this is because the cannabis industry system is very complicated. For example, in the United States, cannabis is illegal under federal law, but more and more states have completely or partially eliminated criminal offenses. This creates difficulties for financial institutions to cooperate with companies in the cannabis industry. On the other hand, the legislation on banking and finance is not enough, so many cannabis companies that meet state regulations will not be able to accept credit cards, obtain loans, open deposit accounts, write checks, write wages, or pay taxes. This has brought trouble to all companies in the cannabis industry chain, including cannabis software companies.
