Delaware Announces Legal Cannabis Retail Sales Launch Date

On July 1, Delaware's Office of the Marijuana Commissioner announced that existing medical marijuana conversion licensees will start legal adult-use cannabis sales on August 1, 2025.
Following the 2023 legalization law, Delaware finalized regulations in September 2024, enabling dispensaries to transition under House Bill 408, laying the regulatory groundwork for August sales.
13 medical dispensaries hold conversion licenses; FBI background check delays stalled openings, despite generating $4 million for social equity grants.
Delaware's adult-use cannabis sales will begin August 1, generating revenue to support schools, infrastructure, and public health while expanding access to residents and nearly 30 million tourists annually.
Delaware’s adult-use cannabis market is expected to boost long-term economic growth and regional competition, attracting customers from neighboring states and supporting community opportunities.
