The state of Massachusetts has been waiting a long time for legal cannabis sales to start, and two years after passing legalization as a ballot initiative, two dispensaries finally opened their doors last week. Unfortunately, the state has been slow in their application and licensing process, which means there are only two places in the entire state where people can go buy legal bud – but that certainly didn’t stop anyone from making the drive to do so. In only five days, between two locations, the state has already reportedly sold $2.2 million worth of cannabis products. The numbers released by the Cannabis Control Commission on November 20th found that their gross sales totaled at $2,217,621 for a total of 56,380 units sold. Not unexpectedly, Friday was their most profitable day so far, with $480,000 in sales for that day alone – with the average purchase totaling around $39.33 dollars. |
