TAMPA, Fla. - October 19, 2020 - (Newswire.com)
The iconic Cheech Marin joined Cannabis10x founders Jason Tropf and Holly A Ford, along with the quintessential Bruce Linton, for the most viewed cannabis event of 2020.
The global magic showdown manifested on September 26. "Retail Alchemy" boasted 15 finalists that competed "Shark Tank" style for the Cannabis10x Crown, with German cannabis dispensary retail chain HANF earning royal status.

"There is a definite element of levity at these events!" Tropf mused. "But there is no mistake that they are creating serious growth in this industry."
