Crafted Cannabis

Financial Plan

Forecast

Key Assumptions

  • No significant change in regulation and enforcement related to cannabis businesses in from the state of Oregon, or Lane Country, or Eugene. 
  • We assume fierce competition among the various entrants to the retail market. Not all retailers will survive. This makes differentiation essential. 
  • Continued competition between relatively equal sized players, with no emergence of a major dominant retail brand.
