CANY Survey Highlights Supply Chain Issues Amid Optimism for Future Sales

The Cannabis Association of New York (CANY) released findings from a comprehensive survey of its membership, which spans every part of the cannabis supply chain. The survey found that while a significant majority are experiencing a supply crunch, they still expect sales to improve over the coming three months.

“It’s clear the New York cannabis market continues to trend in the right direction and hope is on the horizon, however, we’re also seeing concerns about supply, which if they continue could slow the progress we’ve seen,” said Damien Cornwell, President of CANY. “These issues underscore the need for the state to undertake a data driven process that delivers licenses to the market in a way that provides for sustainable growth and a thriving market. We look forward to continuing to work collaboratively with the industry and policymakers to implement these solutions.”

BUILDING AN INDUSTRY

A prosperous legal cannabis industry should begin by bringing opportunity and generational wealth to thousands of small and midscale NYS businesses, not just a handful of massive corporations.

RESTORING COMMUNITIES

As the legal cannabis economy emerges, we need to implement new models that restore the environment and our communities, and repair the damage done by the war on drugs.

GROWING A MOVEMENT

As we work to educate government officials and community leaders across NYS, we will ensure that our educational programming is accessible to both existing license-holders and aspiring cannabis entrepreneurs.

OUR MISSION

The Cannabis Association of New York is dedicated to serving as the premier Chamber of
Commerce for the New York cannabis industry. Our mission is to promote the health and
sustainability of the entire cannabis ecosystem in New York, fostering responsible growth and
economic prosperity. Through advocacy, education, and collaboration, we aim to create a
thriving and inclusive cannabis community that prioritizes the well-being of consumers,
businesses, and the environment. Together, we strive to shape a future where cannabis is
understood, respected, and integrated into the fabric of New York’s diverse economy.

WHO WE ARE

We are entrepreneurs who teamed up to build a cannabis industry in New York State that works for small and midscale businesses. As the cannabis industry matures in states across the country, we see familiar patterns emerge. Small and midscale operators are being squeezed out of the market while big industry players lobby for regulations that serve their interests over those of small businesses and consumers. We amplify the voices of our members and advocate for a cannabis industry in New York State with opportunity for thousands of entrepreneurs.
