Marley and Seattle: An Interesting Agreement

Following an agreement with a company in Seattle, Bob Marley’s family has launched an international brand of Cannabis. It will be called “Marley Natural” and, thanks to the aura of the late musician, this name will probably soon become a world brand of incredible strength.

The official launch will take place in 2015 in all the countries of the world where cannabis is legal. The announcement was made by both the heirs of Bob Marley and the Privateer Holding. The CEO of the latter, Brendan Kennedy, said that no name in history has been associated with marijuana like Marley. And we agree, certainly.

The rastafari movement, of which Bob Marley was a faithful follower, celebrates the use of cannabis and the singer claimed that smoking was the sine qua non of his spiritual growth. The brand will be centered on the promotion of the cannabis varieties Bob Marley loved and the accessories that he liked, such as pipettes and cannabis vaporizers. Even cannabis-based skin creams and cocoa butters are part of the deal.

Privateer was able to understand and appreciate the business and its high growth rate, as legalization opened a new market and many states seem on the verge of changing their marijuana laws. Only in the United States, the market should easily exceed the 2.6 billion dollars during the course of this year.

Plus, the strength of the Marley-icon has not decreased at all. Royalties have been stable for years. Just to give you a sense of it, in 2013 the heirs have earned $ 20 million, a mind-boggling figure. This said, the Marley family has been able to capitalize on all this, turning songs into brands while selling products like coffee and much more.

Bob Marley’s daughter expressed the optimism of the family, saying that opinions about marijuana are changing and that eventually all people will recognize the benefits, and his father was certainly ahead of the curve on this.

Actually, not many people know this, but Bob Marley fought hard to promote the idea of cannabis legalization and denounced the futility of a law that chooses concealed economic interests over the wellbeing of the general population. And now that the benefits of marihuana are beginning to be recognized by many official studies, there is only once thing left to say: Bob was right.

So, enjoy some pot (greenhouseseeds.nl/), put on your favorite reggae song… and relax. At the end of the day, every little thing is gonna be alright!
