What was New Mexico cannabis retail sales in February 2023?

SANTA FE, N.M. (KRQE) – After strong sales in January of 2023, the most recent cannabis sales data shows February recreational cannabis sales may be rising. Retailers in Albuquerque alone sold over $8 million worth of recreational cannabis last month, according to the latest data from the Cannabis Control Division.

New Mexico’s cannabis sales haven’t slowed since retail operations began last April. If anything, the latest data suggests the industry might still be growing.
