Dakota Herb LLC's license status has shifted to inactive according to the South Dakota state license roster as of August 6, according to state records. The company operates or operated medical cannabis cultivation sites in Aberdeen, Huron, and Vermillion, as well as dispensaries in Aberdeen and Huron—all currently listed as active in official license records, creating a potential data lag or discrepancy between roster and operational status.

The delisting occurs alongside a larger single-day purge: at least 11 other operators—including multiple Royzzz entities, Northern Hills Alternative Health, Superior Buds, and The Broken Boot Dispensary—were simultaneously marked inactive. South Dakota's medical cannabis market currently shows 52 open retailers and 30 cultivation licenses across the state.

The cause of Dakota Herb LLC's delisting and the concurrent closures are not stated in available records. Watch for clarification on whether these reflect license expirations, compliance actions, or routine administrative updates—and whether the company's multiple cultivation and dispensary licenses remain operational despite the roster change.
