Our History
A leading voice for Ohio’s cannabis industry since 2017
OHCANN was originally established in 2017 as the National Cannabis Industry Association of Ohio (NCIAO) – an NCIA affiliate. In 2019 the association evolved to serve as the voice of Ohio’s growing medical marijuana industry by maintaining a focus on statewide issues impacting our members as Ohio Medical Cannabis Industry Association (OMCIA). OHCANN’s membership is composed of the owners and operators of Ohio’s premier Level 1 and Level 2 cultivators, processors, and dispensaries.
