During the first month of legal adult-use sales in Delaware, licensed dispensaries in the state sold over $7,354,000 worth of cannabis products, the Office of the Marijuana Commissioner announced last week.
The total included over $4,065,000 worth of cannabis flower products, the industry’s most popular product type to date, which represented approximately 55% of total sales. Additionally, officials tracked over 109,000 cannabis plants under cultivation, with 447 different strains in production and 171 different strains available for retail.
The announcement also noted that officials have issued 79 conditional licenses and 3 active licenses since OMC Commissioner Joshua Sanderlin was sworn in in May.
The adult-use market launched in Delaware on August 1, and shops reportedly sold over $625,000 worth of product during the first weekend.
Last week, Delaware Gov. Matt Meyer (D) vetoed a proposal that would have loosened the local zoning regulations for licensed cannabis retailers.
