$GGBXF One of the Hottest Cannabis Growth Stories in the World

Palm Beach, FL – August 29, 2019 – The Latin America cannabis market is on pace to be one of the most exciting in the world.  In fact, it has the potential to become one of the largest markets in the world with an estimated value of $9.8 billion, according to New Frontier Data.  Colombia for example is just beginning to transform itself into a multi-billion-dollar cannabis producer for the pharmaceutical industry.  In time, growers estimate that the country could capture as much as a fifth of a global market that could be worth $40 billion a year, according to Reuters.  That’s opening a wide range of opportunity for companies including The Yield Growth Corp.
