New Mexico cannabis retailers have surpassed $2.35 billion in total recorded sales as of June 2026. The El Paso Times reports that this total includes almost $643 million in medical sales. This figure confirms the medical sector has passed the six hundred million mark.
The data comes from the state Cannabis Reporting Online Portal. It provides a clear picture of current market volume.
The state launched its medical cannabis program in April 2022. The adult-use market followed in April 2024. Medical sales now represent a significant portion of the overall total.
It stands distinct from the adult-use revenue stream.
Adult-use sales account for over $1.7 billion of the total. This amount is separate from the medical sales figure. The combined total reaches $2.35 billion.
The medical sector’s $643 million is a key component. It shows the dual-track nature of New Mexico’s market.
Albuquerque generates the most sales as the state’s largest city. However, border towns are generating disproportionate sales. These towns lie along the border with Texas.
In Texas, cannabis remains prohibited.
Sunland Park lies directly across the border from El Paso, Texas. It has the second-highest rate of cannabis sales in the state. The city generated over $204 million in cannabis sales over the last four years.
This figure is disproportionate to its small population. It demonstrates the impact of cross-border demand.
Other cities and towns along the Texas border also see high sales. Their sales levels are high relative to their population size. The state Cannabis Reporting Online Portal outlines this trend.
The data confirms the economic impact of the border location. It highlights a specific regional pattern in sales.
Albuquerque officials launched a three-year pilot program last year. The program provides guaranteed basic income. It is funded in part by cannabis tax revenues.
This initiative links cannabis sales to local social support. It shows a direct use of the tax revenue.
The pilot program targets residents of Albuquerque. It runs for a period of three years. Cannabis tax revenues are a partial funding source.
This use of revenue supports local community needs. It connects market activity to public services.
The state’s total sales figure includes these tax-generating activities. The medical sector’s $643 million contributes to this base.
The border towns’ sales also add to the tax pool. The revenue funds various state and local efforts.
