Decibel Farms Listed as Inactive in Oregon License Roster, Though Records Show Active Status
State roster flags Decibel Farms as no longer active even as its four individual licenses remain listed as Active, amid a wave of Oregon cannabis license changes.
FILE — closure · Ivan Radic / CC BY 2.0Decibel Farms' license is no longer active in Oregon, according to the state license roster, as first reported by State license roster.
The closure notice arrives amid a cluster of similar filings. Oregon's roster has logged multiple closures in recent days, including Chubby Cat Cannabis, Urban Pharms, Rogue Botanicals, SugarTop Buddery, Arcanna, Lochness Corral, and Gas Station Genetics, alongside new openings such as Arlington Acres in cultivation and Oregon Cannabis Authorities in distribution. Notably, Arlington Acres itself appears in both an opening and a closure entry within the same window, suggesting the roster is capturing rapid churn or possible license-type transitions rather than a single straightforward exit.
The numbers
Oregon's official license records list four separate Decibel Farms licenses — two Recreational Producer licenses, one Recreational Wholesaler license, and one Recreational Processor license — and all four are currently marked "Active" in the state database. This creates an apparent inconsistency with the roster's closure listing for the company, and it is not clear from available records whether the closure applies to a specific license not captured in this set, a pending update not yet reflected in the active-status records, or a discrepancy between reporting systems.
Statewide, Oregon currently counts 758 open retail licenses, 1,351 open cultivation licenses, 264 open manufacturing licenses, and 9 open labs, with no pending applications reported. No monthly sales figures or year-to-date revenue data were available for the state in this dataset, limiting further quantification of the closure's market impact.
What to watch next
Given the conflict between the closure notice and the active-status license records, confirmation from a subsequent roster update would help clarify whether Decibel Farms has fully exited the market or retains active licenses under a different designation. The broader pattern of closures and openings logged across early-to-mid August suggests continued turnover in Oregon's licensed cannabis sector, though the scale of that turnover relative to the state's overall license base of over 2,300 combined retail, cultivation, and manufacturing licenses appears modest based on available figures.
