What is Lucky Leaf Expo?
In case you are new to the industry, Lucky Leaf Expo is one of better known cannabis events circuits that allows local businesses, growers, and supporters to get together and connect.
From Lucky Leaf Kansas City website.
“The Show-Me State is seeing green. To help kickstart Missouri’s adult-use cannabis industry, the first Lucky Leaf Expo Kansas City is taking place March 24 and 25 at the Sheraton Kansas City Hotel at Crown Center. The two-day business-to-business conference will feature a wide variety of panels, exhibitors, and activations meant to inform and unite the new cannabis marketplace in Missouri. As one of the first cannabis industry trade shows to take place in Kansas City, Lucky Leaf Expo is poised to be an important catalyst in moving the marketplace forward. Missouri’s adult-use cannabis industry is expected to rake in a projected $550 million for the state in the first year alone. Don’t miss your chance to be a part of the Midwest’s green rush!
