Beehive Farmacy–Salt Lake City received a new retail medical cannabis license in Utah, according to the state license roster. The pharmacy is now listed as active. The opening appears tied to a broader licensing event: nine retail locations across Utah received new licenses on the same date, including multiple Curaleaf, Bloc Pharmacy, and Dragonfly Wellness locations, plus Zion Medicinal and The Forest.

The timing suggests possible batch processing by Utah regulators. Notably, the state license data shows a prior Beehive Farmacy–Salt Lake City location was marked inactive on Sept. 15—one day before this new license activated—alongside closures of Dragonfly Wellness–Salt Lake City and Beehive Farmacy–Brigham City, hinting at possible relocation or consolidation within the chain.

Utah's medical market now operates 16 retail locations alongside 5 cultivators and 14 manufacturers, per current state records. Watch whether subsequent filings clarify whether the prior Salt Lake City location transferred its operations or whether this represents net market expansion.
