Klutch Cannabis announced the award of two new Provisional Dispensary Licenses from the Ohio Division of Cannabis Control, one each in Cuyahoga and Summit Counties. The award stems from the settlement of three dispensary application appeals originally filed against the Ohio Board of Pharmacy and marks the end of almost 6.5 years of litigation for the company.
The first store to receive a Provisional Dispensary License will be located at 300 East Prospect Avenue in Cleveland. Vacant for almost 20 years, the site is famous for being the former home of Record Rendezvous, where one-time owner Leo Mintz first coined the term "Rock and Roll" and planned what is now considered to be the first rock and roll concert with Cleveland disc jockey Alan Freed.
The second store to receive a Provisional Dispensary License will be located at 10650 Northfield Road in Northfield Village across the street from the MGM Northfield Park Racino, where it is positioned to serve Northern Summit County and surrounding communities. Both sites are anticipated to be online within the coming months.
At the same time, Klutch also announced a planned rebranding of its dispensaries from "The Citizen by Klutch" to "Klutch Cannabis."
