RISE Dispensaries, a cannabis retail chain owned by Green Thumb Industries, today announced the opening of RISE Dispensary Whitehall, the company’s sixth RISE Dispensary in Ohio. This is the first RISE Dispensary to open in Ohio since adult-use sales launched in Ohio in August 2024.
“It is an exciting day for Green Thumb in the Buckeye State as we open our sixth RISE Dispensary in Ohio and first location in the Columbus area,” said Green Thumb President Anthony Georgiadis. “We are eager to offer Central Ohio patients and customers our best-in-class retail experience and greater access to some of Ohio’s top-selling brands, including RYTHM and incredibles.”
RISE Dispensary Whitehall will donate a portion of profits to Home for Families, a Columbus-based organization committed to preventing and ending homelessness for Central Ohio families.
Green Thumb has been in Ohio since 2019. Today, the company operates a manufacturing facility in Toledo, where it grows and manufactures its branded products. In addition to RISE Whitehall, there are five other dual-use RISE Dispensaries in Ohio, including RISE Dispensary Cleveland, RISE Dispensary Lakewood on Detroit, RISE Dispensary Lakewood on Madison, RISE Dispensary Lorain and RISE Dispensary Toledo. These dispensaries launched adult-use sales in August 2024.
