Overview

The Massachusetts cannabis market has demonstrated a resilient growth pattern, with the most recent data indicating a 5.4% year-over-year increase in total sales for April 2024, reaching $133.1 million. This growth is coupled with a notable expansion in total units sold, which surged by 28.6% compared to the previous year. Despite this positive trajectory, the average item price has experienced a slight decline from $23.27 in April 2023 to $19.07 in April 2024, suggesting a market that is becoming increasingly competitive and possibly more accessible to a broader range of consumers.

The market's consistent growth is underpinned by a diverse range of product categories, each with its own unique performance metrics. While some categories like Capsules have seen a decline in both sales and unit growth, others such as Pre-Rolls have shown remarkable increases, highlighting the dynamic nature of consumer preferences within the state's cannabis landscape.

Focusing on the Pre-Roll category, we observe a distinct trend that sets it apart from the overall market. In April 2024, the Pre-Roll category saw a 1.1% month-over-month sales growth and an impressive 50.0% year-over-year unit growth, with total sales amounting to $25.56 million. This suggests a growing consumer preference for convenience and perhaps a shift towards more social consumption patterns as the stigma around cannabis continues to diminish.

Within the Pre-Roll category, the 'Hybrid - Single Strain' segment stands out with a 1.8% month-over-month sales growth and a substantial 54.3% year-over-year unit growth. This segment's performance indicates a strong consumer preference for hybrid strains that offer a balance of effects, catering to both medicinal and recreational users.

In October 2023, Happy Valley led the 'Hybrid - Single Strain' segment with $1.13 million in sales, followed by Dogwalkers and Nature's Heritage. These brands have successfully captured the market by offering a variety of skus and competitive pricing.

| Segment | Average Item Price (April 2024) | Total Sales ($M, April 2024) | Total Units (April 2024) | Year-over-Year Unit Growth | |---------|---------------------------------|------------------------------|--------------------------|----------------------------| | Hybrid - Single Strain | $8.10 | $15.96 | 1,970,479 | 54.3% | | Indica - Single Strain | $7.62 | $2.87 | 376,680 | 68.8% | | Sativa - Single Strain | $8.81 | $2.49 | 282,456 | 52.5% | | Connoisseur / Infused | $16.81 | $3.03 | 180,194 | 44.3% |
