One year after Delaware launched legal recreational marijuana sales, state officials say the state's cannabis market has made significant progress, generating more than $53.4 million in adult-use sales while continuing to expand access for consumers and opportunities for businesses.

After more than two years of setbacks, Delaware's recreational marijuana market officially launched on August 1.

Delaware is set to begin legal adult-use marijuana sales this summer, marking a significant milestone in cannabis legalization efforts in the First State.

Delaware may soon have a new marijuana commissioner after more than three months without a permanent leader overseeing the state’s adult-use cannabis rollout.
