Ohio Begins Recreational Marijuana Sales
Ohio has officially commenced recreational marijuana sales, with the Ohio Department of Commerce Division of Cannabis Control issuing dual-use Certificates of Operation to 98 dispensaries across the state, allowing them to sell both medical and recreational cannabis. This milestone follows the legalization approved by voters in November 2023. Among the early customers were individuals at Sunnyside and Zen Leaf dispensaries in Cincinnati. Adult residents over 21 can now legally purchase up to 2.5 ounces of cannabis and 15 grams of extract. The projected economic benefits include potential revenues of up to $4 billion by the fourth year of sales. Dispensaries and local officials are optimistic about the positive societal and economic impacts, despite concerns about ensuring compliance with neighboring state laws.
