Listing #5197
Asking Price: $4,950,000
We are pleased to present this is a rare chance to acquire one of only five operational dispensaries in Staten Island, securing a strong foothold in a limited-license market with excellent demographics and long-term growth potential. Staten Island is home to nearly 500,000 residents, with each dispensary serving an average of ~99,000 people, one of the highest population-per-store ratios in New York City. With above-average household incomes, stable homeownership, and limited competition, this dispensary offers both immediate performance and long-term upside in a high-barrier market.
Prime Location & Features
- 2,880 SF retail and administrative space, including a lower-level area.
- 35-car private parking lot, a major advantage in Staten Island’s retail environment and highly effective for community events, brand activations, and promotions.
- Competitive lease terms: $5,200/month rent plus $6,000 annually toward property taxes and utilities.
- Excellent visibility and access on a high-traffic corridor, surrounded by dense residential neighborhoods and nearby commercial activity.
- One of very few compliant retail properties in Staten Island — qualifying sites are extremely limited, and availability with ample parking is virtually nonexistent.

Demographics & Market Strength
- Population: ~495,700 residents.
- Average population per dispensary: ~99,000 people (only five stores currently operating).
- Median household income: $95,000–$101,000 — higher than the NYC median, with an average household income of ~$126,000.
- Median home value: ~$672,000, reflecting strong property wealth and stability.
- Median age: ~41 years, with a mix of families, working professionals, and long-term residents.
- Education: ~35% of adults hold a bachelor’s degree or higher.

- These stats translate into a stable, affluent customer base with strong purchasing power and a reliance on convenient, local retail options.
Growth Upside
- Delivery Opportunity: Delivery services are currently operating but not at full capacity. Delivery fleet and service radius offers significant additional revenue potential.
- Event Capacity: Dedicated parking lot enables regular promotional and community events, enhancing customer engagement and retention.
- Brand Expansion: Staten Island’s underserved cannabis market provides room for differentiation through marketing, product selection, and loyalty programs.
New York Cannabis Market Potential
- Projected market size: New York’s adult-use cannabis industry is expected to surpass $5 billion annually within 5 years.
- Downstate demand: NYC boroughs, including Staten Island, will capture the majority of this growth due to population density and limited licenses.
- Staten Island’s combination of affluence, strong homeownership, and limited retail access creates above-average revenue potential per dispensary.
This opportunity offers a truly scarce combination of compliant licensing, prime location, affluent demographics, ample parking, and proven financials, making it one of the strongest dispensary investments available in New York today.
