All-time marijuana sales in Ohio are now at $1,985,328,602.

Currently, there are around 120 dispensaries in Ohio that are licensed to sell recreational marijuana. Stand-alone recreational marijuana stores are expected to open sometime in 2025.

Ohio’s recreational marijuana law, which took effect on December 7, allows individuals aged 21 and older to possess up to 2.5 ounces of marijuana and 15 grams of marijuana concentrates. The state’s Division of Cannabis Control, part of the Department of Commerce, oversees the licensing and regulation of the marijuana industry.
