California set a marijuana sales record of $348 million in July, the biggest month since the 2018 rollout of the state’s legal market.
That sales figure comes from Headset, a marijuana data tracking firm based in Seattle.
This has been a good year all around for California’s legal marijuana market, which is still in something of a multiyear transition after its 2018 launch: Only January’s sales registered below $300 million, and sales that month reached $299.9 million.
California’s 2020 monthly totals are a stark contrast to 2019, when sales got above $300 million for only the final three months of the year.
In the first month of legal sales in California, in January 2018, legal cannabis retailers brought in only $100 million.
Good news!l for the licensed marketplace in California.
Oregon’s sales are breaking records too.
Curious about the data input here. What is the difference between GreenEdge BDS and Headset? Your article shows 299.9M in sales in California for January but the BDSA report from GreenEdge shows only 243.7M.
Which one is correct and what is the difference in the calculation?
