Overview

Maryland’s cannabis market has established itself as a significant player, with March 2026 sales reaching $100.8 million. Over the past year, the market has shown steady growth, with a 2.8% year-over-year increase in sales and a 6.3% rise in units sold. The average item price in March 2026 was $27.75, which is among the higher price points nationally, reflecting both strong demand and a premium product mix. Month-over-month, Maryland saw a robust 9.1% sales increase and a 13.1% jump in units sold, signaling renewed consumer activity after a period of moderate fluctuations.

Pricing in Maryland remains elevated compared to many other states, but recent trends show a slight softening, with average item prices dipping from $28.76 in February 2026 to $27.75 in March 2026. This suggests increased competition and possibly more value-oriented offerings entering the market, which could further stimulate demand and unit growth in the coming months.
