DTC Holdings' license is no longer active in Washington, according to the state license roster updated August 12. The deactivation appears part of a broader wave: at least nine other entities—including The Green Shelf, Stickys, Fillabong, Evolve Cannabis, and Green Lady Hawks Prairie—saw licenses marked inactive on the same date.

Washington's retail market remains substantial, with 482 open retail locations operating against a backdrop of 973 active cultivation and 1,009 manufacturing licenses. The cluster of simultaneous inactivations suggests either routine roster maintenance or a single regulatory event, though the state record does not clarify the cause of each closure.

Watch whether future roster updates reveal patterns in timing or geography of these deactivations, and whether the state provides narrative detail on whether these represent voluntary surrenders or enforcement actions.
