Some projections call for legal marijuana sales to reach $22 billion by 2022 as more states legalize use of the drug.  People directly involved in the industry like growers, retailers, distributors and property owners will need coverage.  This creates an opportunity for insurers. Marijuana-related markets like cultivation, dispensaries, retailers and landlords will be in need of insurance coverage. But there are still risks holding carriers back, A.M. Best said in a recent report.  The federal government classifies it as a controlled substance, and as an illegal drug.

Dispensary - enter at your own risk

Because marijuana is not legal at the federal level, some carriers see marijuana insurance as a “debatable” move, A.M. Best said. "Despite growing demand from both producers and retailers, many carriers are reluctant to embrace the industry because of its classification as a Schedule I drug in the eyes of the U.S. federal government.”
