FILE — closure · Ivan Radic / CC BY 2.0Cirona Labs, which held an Adult-Use Processor License (OCM-PROC-24-000051) and an Adult-Use Distributor License (OCM-DIST-24-000039) in New York, is no longer active, according to the state license roster. The status change was recorded on July 28. State records show no testing labs currently operate in New York's adult-use market.
The inactivation comes as New York's license roster recorded a wave of ownership and name changes on the same date, affecting more than a dozen retail and cultivation operators. The market continues to expand, with 868 open retail locations and 242 cultivation sites across the state as of the latest update.
The reason for Cirona Labs' license deactivation is not specified in available records. Operators to watch: whether Cirona's processor or distributor licenses reactivate, and whether the ownership reshuffles signal consolidation or strategic repositioning among incumbents.
