Mississippi’s medical cannabis sales eclipse $4.4M in July

Medical cannabis retailers in Mississippi sold $4.4 million worth of products in July, up 15.3% from June, according to state data provided to MJBizDaily.

The July total – $4,429,093 – marked the sixth straight month of increased sales since the state launched MMJ retail in late January, Department of Revenue statistics show.

Mississippi regulators and state agencies have yet to release monthly sales figures publicly, but an official told MJBizDaily they will at some point.

Since the medical marijuana program started in Mississippi, retailers have sold $15,718,622 worth of products.

The newest MMJ market in the Deep South has performed surprisingly well despite nearly four dozen Mississippi cities and counties opting out of the program, according to the Biloxi Sun Herald.
