Benchmarking
Market ComparisonApr 2026
North Dakota's 88.9% year-over-year sales growth and 101.1% two-year gain place it among the fastest-expanding cannabis markets in the country on a percentage basis. With only eight dispensaries and no new store openings over the past year, this growth is driven entirely by rising per-store throughput and a 30.3% increase in average prices rather than footprint expansion, a dynamic rarely seen in U.S. cannabis.
