Cannabis sales see record-setting growth in Illinois

Cannabis sales are booming in Illinois.

This is the third year in a row of record-setting growth for adult use of recreational marijuana.
The record set for 2023 exceeds $1.6 billion. Dispensaries sold more than 42,000,000 items last year, which is a 15% increase from 2022.

Illinois Governor JB Pritzker says the benefits from the sales will be used to help the state’s historically overlooked areas.
