Ohio cannabis companies sold more than $381 million in medical cannabis in 2021, representing an almost 72% increase from 2020.
One of those companies is in Youngstown, Riviera Creek Holdings.
As demand continues to skyrocket for their Stambaugh product, the number one medical cannabis strain in the state, the company is expanding to meet that demand, with four new grow rooms on the way.
"When we first opened, we had two rooms," Brian Kessler, Owner of Riviera Creek, said. "We then doubled that and expanded to four rooms. We are now doubling those four rooms to almost more than ¾ of our building."
Riviera Creek is also expanding its product line with new strains called Avanti, Wildcat, and Lost River. They also added a new processing facility on site, which uses only water and ice to separate and extract the potent chemicals that provide the medicinal effect.
