Gov. Michelle Lujan Grisham announced the sales mark on March 5, less than a month before the second anniversary of legal cannabis sales in the state.
Tucumcari has recorded more than $9.2 million in adult-use and medical cannabis sales from more than 157,000 transactions since legalization began in April 2022.

In the past year, Tucumcari has averaged about $500,000 in total marijuana sales per month.
The far east Quay County settlement of Glenrio has seen more than $580,000 in sales since a dispensary opened there in September, yards from the border of Texas, where recreational cannabis remains illegal.
The Village of Logan has seen about $338,000 in total cannabis sales since legalization.
Albuquerque remains the top city in New Mexico for cannabis sales, with more than $202 million in adult-use products being sold since legalization.
