Shangri-La CT Inc., holder of active licenses for cannabis food and beverage manufacturing (license 1941) and retail (license 11824), has changed its licensee name to Alpha CT 3 LLC, according to Connecticut's state license roster. The change was recorded August 1. Related roster entries suggest simultaneous filings under variant entities, including Alpha CT 1 LLC.

The rebranding occurs as Connecticut's adult-use market continues early-stage growth, with 79 open retail locations, 22 cultivation sites, and 13 manufacturing facilities currently licensed. June sales data showed approximately $48 million in monthly revenue across the state. The name change does not appear to affect operational status of either license.

Watch whether the entity restructuring signals internal consolidation, ownership transition, or administrative realignment—and whether other Shangri-La or Alpha-branded licenses undergo similar updates in coming weeks.
