The Economics Of The Narco Cartels

You’ve probably heard all about Pablo Escobar or El Chapo, but do you really know how a drug cartel works? It isn’t just distribution; it’s also production, management, and HR! So let’s start off by saying, it definitely isn’t easy running a drug cartel, and it’s a pretty long process too! If you’re interested in the profitable business of drug cartels, keep watching because we have everything you need to know, right here!
Did you know that 350 kg of dry coca leaves are required to produce one kilogramme of cocaine? The leaves are dried even further, reducing their overall weight. Then comes the exciting part: extracting all of that tasty cocaine from those leaves. This is accomplished by finely slicing the dried leaves and combining them with some strong chemicals such as cement, fertilizer, and gasoline. After filtering out all of the residual plant matter and trying to eliminate all of the compounds, you boil the remainder down until you're left with around one kilogramme of damp cream-colored paste known as cocaine base. All that remains for the final stage is to combine the paste with a solvent, such as acetone and hydrochloric acid. So the $385 coca leaves can now be sold for $800 in Colombia, and that kilogram starts its lengthy trek down the cocaine supply chain!
