A nationwide study commissioned by SICPA and conducted online by The Harris Poll of over 2,000 U.S. adults shows broad support for providing secure, tamper-proof labeling of cannabis products to verify their legitimacy and safety in the marketplace. The SICPA/Harris Poll, the first of a quarterly series of polls, further suggests that Americans are willing to pay a premium for cannabis products that utilize secure, tamper-proof labeling to provide assurance that products are legitimately sourced and appropriately tested. The next cannabis poll is scheduled for January 2022.
