Overview
Maryland’s cannabis market has established itself as a significant player, with September 2026 sales reaching $100.3 million. Over the past year, the market has shown steady growth, posting a 7.0% year-over-year increase for September 2026. While the market experienced some volatility in monthly sales, the overall trend remains positive, with notable rebounds after seasonal dips. The average item price in Maryland sits at $27.07, which is among the highest in the country, reflecting both strong demand and a premium product mix.
Despite the high average price, Maryland’s unit sales have also grown, up 10.5% year-over-year. This combination of rising sales and robust unit growth suggests that consumers are willing to pay more for cannabis products, possibly due to a focus on quality, brand reputation, or limited competition compared to more mature markets.

Market Comparison
Maryland’s market size places it in the upper-middle tier nationally, with September 2026 sales of $100.3 million. This is higher than states like Nevada ($49.8M) and Oregon ($74.8M), but below larger markets such as California ($329.5M), Michigan ($242.2M), and New York ($160.8M). Maryland’s 7.0% YoY sales growth outpaces mature markets like California (0.6%) and Oregon (0.2%), and is competitive with other newer or expanding markets such as Missouri (7.6%) and New York (10.0%).
In terms of pricing, Maryland’s $27.07 average item price is among the highest in the country, trailing only New York ($28.62), New Jersey ($29.10), and Connecticut ($27.58). This premium pricing, combined with double-digit unit growth, highlights Maryland as a high-value, high-growth market.

Category Performance
While Flower and Pre-Roll categories dominate in total sales, the Beverage category stands out for its rapid growth and evolving segment mix. Beverage sales in September 2026 hit $0.64 million, up 22.7% year-over-year, making it the fastest-growing category in Maryland. The average beverage price has declined slightly to $6.46, which may be fueling increased trial and repeat purchases.

The Mocktails segment also saw a sharp monthly increase. Meanwhile, Water and Drops, Mixes, Elixirs, and Syrups remain the largest segments by sales, with Water showing strong annual growth.
