Overview

Alberta's cannabis market has shown a robust growth pattern, with a notable increase in both sales and unit transactions. In May 2025, the total sales reached approximately $84.37 million, marking an 8.5% year-over-year growth. This growth is complemented by a 10.5% increase in units sold compared to the previous year, indicating a healthy expansion in consumer demand. The average item price in Alberta has slightly decreased from April 2025 to May 2025, moving from $21.25 to $21.41, which suggests a market adjustment that could be influencing the increased volume of sales.

The province's cannabis market is not only growing in terms of sales but also in the diversity of products offered. The month-over-month sales growth of 4.5% alongside a 3.8% increase in units sold from April to May 2025 demonstrates a consistent upward trend. This consistent growth, coupled with a strategic pricing approach, positions Alberta as a significant player in the Canadian cannabis landscape.
