The state of New York has established itself as a significant leader in cannabis reform, adopting one of the nation’s most comprehensive regulatory frameworks through the Marijuana Regulation and Taxation Act (MRTA) in 2021. With adult-use cannabis legalized for individuals 21 and over, New York built its marketplace on strong compliance, transparency, and consumer safety standards. As operators enter this evolving landscape, Metrc plays a central role in supporting the regulatory efforts.
NEW YORK WELCOMES YOU
All licensed cannabis businesses in New York are required to use the state’s seed-to-sale tracking system to monitor cannabis products throughout the entire supply chain, from cultivation and processing to distribution, testing, and retail sales. This landing page will provide essential links, resources, and updates for New York licensees. The information offered here is intended to supplement the documentation and training materials found within the core Metrc application and its training platform, Metrc Learn. We’re proud to support you as New York builds a safe, equitable, and transparently regulated cannabis market.
New York’s cannabis program is overseen by the New York Office of Cannabis Management (OCM), which regulates all adult-use and medical cannabis activities. Licensing categories include cultivators, processors, distributors, microbusinesses, retail dispensaries, delivery operations, and on-site consumption lounges. The MRTA places strong emphasis on social and economic equity, prioritizing individuals and communities disproportionately impacted by past cannabis enforcement policies.
