Uber will allow users to order marijuana on its Uber Eats app, a spokesman said on Monday, marking the ride-hailing giant's official foray into the booming marijuana business.

Uber now offers alcohol through its Eats app and has set its sights on the potentially huge cannabis market. CEO Dara Khosrowshahi had said in April that the company would consider offering marijuana when it became legal in the United States. "We continue to closely monitor regulations and opportunities in each market," an Uber spokesperson told Reuters. As local and federal developments develop, we will explore opportunities for marijuana business with businesses operating in other areas."
