Dakota Herb LLC's license status has been marked no longer active according to South Dakota's state license roster as of August 6, according to the roster data. The timing coincides with a broader batch of license status updates affecting at least 12 operators in the state on the same date, including Royzzz entities, Northern Hills Alternative Health, and Superior Buds.

However, official license records show five Dakota Herb LLC licenses remain listed as active: three medical cannabis cultivation licenses in Aberdeen, Huron, and Vermillion, plus two medical cannabis dispensary licenses in Aberdeen and Huron. The discrepancy between the roster status and the detailed license records suggests either a data synchronization lag or a partial status change affecting only certain licenses under the company.

South Dakota's medical cannabis market currently includes 52 open retail locations, 30 cultivation facilities, and 14 manufacturing licensees. Watch whether Dakota Herb LLC's cultivation and dispensary licenses transition to inactive status in official records, or if the roster reflects a different category or enforcement action.
