New York now has over 500 stores open. So how much shelf space is available?

According to Lit Alerts most recent analysis this month, the median number of cannabis items on a cannabis retailer’s menu is 245. Including accessories and apparel, that number moves up slightly to 257.

Nearly 50% of stores are carrying 250 cannabis SKUs or less. Nearly 80% of stores are carrying 500 cannabis SKUs or less.

Hopefully this is a positive sign for the industry as New York retailers are right sizing their menus for sustainable growth.
