INTRODUCTION: The most recent health surveys in general population are used in order to estimate the annual market size for cannabis in France in 2005.
METHODS: Two methods for arriving at an estimate are proposed: the first based on reported consumption, the other on reported expenditure on cannabis. RESULTS: The annual sales figure for cannabis in France is between 746 and 832 million euro. Men's expenditure accounts for between 80 and 85% of total expenditure and those aged between 15 and 24 years account for the greatest part of the size of the cannabis market, between 57 and 60%, depending upon the method. CONCLUSIONS: According to these estimates, consumers' average annual expenditure on cannabis is around 202 in France, compared to estimates obtained for New Zealand and Holland (124) and the United States (362). |
