HOME SWEET HOME –

Oct. 29, 2024 – Officials with the Arizona Dispensaries Association said the new delivery program is expected to expand access across the state.

“We are thrilled that the department of health’s proactive approach and commitment to implementing a well-thought-out delivery program has helped us reach this landmark moment sooner than expected,” said Ann Torrez, executive director. Recreational marijuana sales began in Arizona in 2021 under a voter-approved ballot initiative. The measure had passed in the fall of 2020 four years after voters narrowly defeated a similar proposal, although medical marijuana has been legal in the state since 2010.

Sales boomed following legalization, topping $1 billion in 2023.
