Maryland Hits Sales Record in Month 1

Maryland legal marijuana sales reached a record high of $87.4 million in July, the first month since the recreational market launched, state data shows. That more than doubles the sales totals for June, when medical cannabis dispensaries were only serving patients. About 100 of those existing dispensaries were cleared to service adult consumers starting July 1. The previous monthly record for medical-only purchases was just over $50 million.
