ST. LOUIS, Mo. (KMOV) - Missouri’s marijuana industry has marked a major milestone.
Pot sales in the state continue to smash records just months after recreational sales got the green light.
In February, Missouri hit $745 million in cumulative marijuana sales, which includes both medicinal and adult use.
In March, that number grew to $817 million and then $992 million in April.
Medical marijuana sales first started back in October 2020 and now, marijuana is a billion-dollar industry in the Show-Me State.
It reached that one billion dollar mark in sales on May 2.
