HEADWINDS OF CHANGE

Growers today are experiencing a complex set of interconnected challenges on a global scale. Fluence CEO David Cohen addressed these issues in a recent special report, noting: “Supply chain shortages continue to drive up capital improvement costs, cannabis surplus in the U.S. is forcing retailers to sell their products at deep discounts, and inflation hangs over consumers worldwide. It’s tough out there.”
