Montana Passes $1 Billion in Legal Cannabis Sales Since 2022

Montana’s legal marijuana market has officially surpassed $1 billion in total sales, following more than $26 million in sales in March.

According to data released by the Montana Department of Revenue, legal marijuana sales reached $26,582,252 in March. Of March’s total, the vast majority—$23,264,823—came from recreational marijuana, while medical marijuana sales accounted for $3,317,430.

The new figures bring Montana’s all-time legal marijuana sales to $1,023,210,727 since the launch of recreational sales in January 2022. Of this total, $812,180,749 has come from recreational marijuana and $211,029,978 from medical marijuana.

So far in 2025, February saw $23,711,334 in sales, while January brought in $25,914,159, bringing the total for the first quarter of the year to $76,207,745.

Montana voters approved recreational marijuana legalization in 2020, with licensed sales beginning the following year. Adults 21 and older can legally possess up to one ounce of marijuana, and products are taxed at 20% for recreational sales and 4% for medical.

As the state continues to generate tens of millions in monthly marijuana revenue, the milestone underscores Montana’s robust market growth and solidifies its position in the broader legal cannabis landscape.
