Massachusetts Cannabis Sales
Nov, 2024
Overview
Massachusetts presents a dynamic and growing cannabis market, characterized by a consistent upward trajectory in both sales and consumer demand. As of November 2024, the state recorded total cannabis sales amounting to $133.35 million, reflecting a modest year-over-year growth of 3.7%. This growth is supported by a significant increase in unit sales, which saw a 21.9% rise compared to the previous year, indicating a robust expansion in consumer base and consumption volume. The average item price in Massachusetts has seen a slight decrease from $18.97 in October 2024 to $18.57 in November 2024, suggesting a market adjustment that could be influencing the purchasing patterns.
Despite a slight month-over-month sales decline of 2.1%, the market's resilience is evident from the annual growth figures. The pricing trends and sales dynamics suggest that Massachusetts is adapting to both market maturation and evolving consumer preferences, which could be a result of increased competition and improved production efficiencies within the state.

Category Performance
Focusing on the Pre-Roll category, it is evident that this segment is performing differently compared to the overall market. In November 2024, Pre-Roll sales totaled approximately $25.99 million with a substantial year-over-year growth of 12.4% and a remarkable 32.7% increase in units sold. This suggests a growing popularity of this category, possibly due to its convenience and the diversification of product offerings. The average price of Pre-Roll items decreased slightly to $9.32, which could be making it more accessible to a broader audience.
