This isn’t the first study (referenced in the article linked below) that has suggested a number near $2.50 for indirect economic impact per dollar spent in dispensaries. In addition to that direct spending, this new industry will create revenues in other spaces as well. In fact, it appears as these auxiliary companies (those who don’t actually touch the plant) are already gearing up to interface with this brand new industry. This is a great story about a local Kansas City businessman who is trying to do just that.
