Can I buy from Cann Group directly? That's the practical question most people arrive with, and the answer is no. Cann Group is an ASX-listed Australian company that cultivates and manufactures prescription medical cannabis — a licensed producer that supplies into the prescription system, not a shop the public buys from. So if you're in Geelong and you simply want over-the-counter CBD oil — no consult, no script — that's a separate route. For that, there's CBD Oil Geelong, an online CBD oil shop delivering across Newtown, Belmont, Corio, Torquay and the rest of VIC.
This review is independent. CBD Oil Geelong is a separate Australian shop that sells its own range of over-the-counter CBD oil — it is not Cann Group, is not affiliated with it, and is not a licensed medical-cannabis producer, cultivator or prescriber. Cann Group's own corporate information sits on its official site.
What Cann Group is
Cann Group Limited was founded in 2014, is based in Melbourne, Victoria, and trades on the Australian Securities Exchange under the code CAN. It holds two Australian firsts: the first cannabis research licence, issued in February 2017, and the first medicinal cannabis cultivation licence, in March 2017.
In practical terms, it grows and makes product. The company runs an R&D facility in Melbourne and a large-scale cultivation and GMP manufacturing facility near Mildura, in north-west Victoria, where it breeds, cultivates, extracts and manufactures medical cannabis. Cann Group describes itself as a business-to-business medicinal cannabis company — it supplies into the prescription supply chain rather than selling to the public over the counter.
So it's a licensed producer, not a storefront. A Cann Group product reaches a patient through a doctor, a prescription and the regulated medical pathway — not a checkout. That's the bit to get straight before lining it up against an OTC shop.
Prescription medical cannabis vs over-the-counter CBD oil
Worth being plain about, because the two are easy to mix up. Prescription medical cannabis — the category Cann Group manufactures for — sits under the Therapeutic Goods Administration's regulated access pathways. A doctor assesses whether it's appropriate, and the specific product and dose form part of a medical plan. That route can include THC-containing products and is managed under medical oversight.
Over-the-counter CBD oil is a different category. In 2021 the TGA down-scheduled low-dose cannabidiol to a pharmacist-only medicine, and hemp-derived CBD oil is also sold online as a product you buy directly — described by spectrum, milligrams and carrier oil, with no consultation required. The two are separate frameworks with separate rules, and neither replaces the other; the current position is set out on the TGA website. We don't position our shop as a stand-in for medical advice or a prescription — a doctor is the route for that. We simply sell OTC CBD oil to people in Geelong who want that specific product.
Buying over-the-counter CBD oil in Geelong
CBD Oil Geelong is an online CBD oil shop set up for Geelong — no clinic, no consultation, no script. We describe every oil by what's in it, never by what it might do, and post across Newtown, Belmont, Corio, Torquay and the rest of VIC in plain Australian dollars. For the whole-plant profile, our full-spectrum CBD oil keeps the legal trace of THC (under 0.3%); if you'd rather none, our broad-spectrum CBD oil removes it.
Beyond cannabidiol there are two single-cannabinoid oils — CBG oil, which is cannabigerol, and a THC-free CBN oil, a cannabinol isolate — plus a pet CBD oil made for animals. Each is hemp extract in a coconut-derived MCT carrier, in a 50ml bottle, third-party lab-tested by batch with a Certificate of Analysis on request, and priced from $89.95. Imported from EU Labs in Amsterdam and dispatched within Australia; the whole range and prices for Geelong are in one place.

What to weigh before you compare
A producer and a shop answer different questions, so the comparison is really about which route you need:
- Licensed producer (Cann Group) — a company that cultivates and manufactures medical cannabis for the prescription supply chain. You don't buy from it; its products reach patients through a doctor and a script, under TGA-regulated pathways.
- Over-the-counter shop (CBD Oil Geelong) — a place you buy hemp-derived CBD oil directly, described by spectrum, size, carrier oil and price, with no consultation. It starts and ends with the product.
Neither replaces the other. The prescription route is the one to take if what you want is a medical assessment. If it's the OTC product you're after, the how-to-use guide explains how to read a CBD oil label.
