1620 Holdings LLC becomes newest cultivation licensee in Mississippi
Mississippi's cannabis regulator issued licenses to 1620 Holdings and nine other operators on Sept. 18, bringing the state's active cultivation count to 113.
FILE — cultivation · Cannabis Tours / CC BY-SA 4.01620 Holdings LLC was licensed as a cultivation operator in Mississippi on September 18, according to the state license roster. The approval arrives amid a broader licensing push: on the same day, state records show nine other new operator licenses were granted, including seven cultivation operations, one manufacturing facility, one distribution operation, and one additional retail license.
Mississippi's medical cannabis market now includes 113 active cultivation licenses, 188 open retail locations, and 42 manufacturing permits, per current state data. The licensing activity follows a period of relative stability—the state currently shows no pending applications. One existing license, Cultivated Wellness Dispensary NO.2, became inactive on the same day, suggesting routine portfolio churn rather than a broader market contraction.
The rapid issuance of multiple cultivation licenses in a single update suggests Mississippi's regulator may be processing a batch of approved applications. Watch whether this pace sustains or whether the pending-application count begins to climb again, indicating potential bottlenecks in future licensing rounds.
