PHILADELPHIA, Aug. 10, 2024 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Ethos Cannabisa leading multi-state operator with a presence in Massachusetts, Ohio and Pennsylvania, today announced the start of adult-use cannabis sales at its Lebanon, Ohio dispensary. Ethos Cannabis joins more than 100 Ohio dispensaries that now sell adult-use cannabis. The Company’s Lebanon store is the first Ethos location in the state to transition to the adult-use market, with more to follow, including a store in New Lexington scheduled to open in mid- to late October that will sell both medical and adult-use cannabis, and a third location in January 2025.
This milestone comes as Ohio’s cannabis market continues to grow. Projections suggest the state could become one of the largest cannabis markets in the Midwest. Legal cannabis sales in Ohio are expected to 1.6 billion US dollars annually through 2026, with the adult market accounting for approximately $1.3 billion of that total.
“This is a significant step forward for Ethos Cannabis and the state of Ohio. Our entry into the recreational market in Ohio not only expands our portfolio, but also aligns perfectly with our core mission. We are committed to ensuring cannabis has a proper, useful place in society, and this expansion allows us to further advance that goal,” said Gibran Washington, CEO of Ethos Cannabis. “By providing informed access to high-quality cannabis products, we empower more people to explore the potential benefits of cannabis for their well-being and quality of life.”

Our team has undergone extensive training to serve both our loyal medical patients and new recreational customers with equal dedication and expertise. As one of the few dispensaries within 15 miles of our Lebanon location, we are in a unique position of responsibility. We don’t just sell product; we educate a community and shape the perception of cannabis in this region.
