TerrAscend Delighted About Maryland's Cannabis Sales, Meet Exec Chair Jason Wild At Benzinga Conference In Chicago

After Maryland’s cannabis users collectively spent a whopping $87.43 million on marijuana products during the state’s first full month of recreational sales, TerrAscend TRSSF joined the conversation to point out that their products had a great month as well, thanks in part to Maryland.  

With $2.8 million of daily sales in July, the MD adult-use market is off to a strong start! “We’re happy about it,” said Sr. VP of Marketing BJ Carretta to @washingtonpost. Our decision to expand our footprint to 4 dispensaries in MD shows great promise: https://t.co/1GoCTTY0Hq
