Breaking Barriers in Cannabis Financing

The cannabis industry is booming, with legal sales projected to reach $50 billion by 2028. Despite this growth, many cannabis business owners face a significant hurdle: access to funding. Traditional lenders often shy away from cannabis businesses due to regulatory uncertainties, leaving many entrepreneurs without the resources they need to grow.

At Magenta, we take a different approach. We believe in investing in possibilities, and that includes supporting cannabis businesses with flexible financing solutions that adapt to your needs.


Why Traditional Lenders Say No

Many banks and financial institutions hesitate to fund cannabis businesses because of the industry’s unique challenges.

  • Federal Classification: Despite state-level legalization in many areas, cannabis remains federally classified as a controlled substance, creating legal concerns for lenders.
  • Perceived Risk: Traditional lenders often view the industry as too volatile or risky, especially given shifting regulations.
  • Credit Score Focus: Many lenders rely heavily on credit scores, which can be a barrier for newer or rapidly growing businesses.
These challenges leave many cannabis businesses without viable funding options, even when they demonstrate strong revenue and growth potential.
