Latinos make up only a portion of the 10% of minorities-owned cannabis businesses, according to a 2017 report. Another study found that only 19% of cannabis companies are owned by women. While Latinos and women own a small portion of cannabis companies, there is still a variety of uniquely designed products by people who identify as both.
