Seattle has no cannabis store in the state's top ten by sales, according to a Seattle Red analysis of 2025 figures, and its top performer, Kush21 Sodo, ranked twelfth at $6.7 million. That makes the Verdex scores more useful than sales rank. The leaders at 9.4 are A Greener Today on MLK Way S, Canna West Seattle, Greenworks Cannabis in Greenwood and Have a Heart in Belltown. Buyers must be 21 with photo ID and may buy up to 1 ounce of flower, 7 grams of concentrate or 16 ounces of solid edibles. Scores run from 9.2 to 9.4 among the eight leaders.
