The state has embraced a progressive regulatory framework, fostering a robust market with hundreds of licensed dispensaries, a ton of cultivation facilities, and a burgeoning sector of cannabis-infused products. The adult-use market has had it’s speedbumps and forks in the road, but it has grown and thrived in most ways.
Michigan’s large and diverse population provides a solid consumer base. With approximately 10 million residents, the state has a substantial market size, augmented by tourism and visitors from neighboring states, some of which cannabis remains illegal. This geographic advantage positions Michigan as a regional hub for cannabis sales, drawing customers from Indiana and Wisconsin.
