The market for legal cannabis in the US in 2018 is estimated at $10.4 billion. Canopy Growth is preparing to get a pie of the legal cannabis market. Accordingly, Canopy Growth signed a deal in April 2019 to acquire Acreage Holdings, a cannabis producer based in New York, for $3.4 billion. The takeover is subject to the central legalization of cannabis in the US.
