Cookies Napa, an active California retail license (C10-0000996-LIC), has undergone a licensee name change to Jiva NPA LLC, according to the state license roster. The Napa retail location remains in active status under its new legal entity designation.

The ownership shift occurs amid modest licensing churn in California's retail sector. State records show 1,266 active retail licenses as of late September, with concurrent openings and closures marking normal market flux—including new equity retailers like Flor Del Carmen and multiple brand-name retail debuts alongside several license terminations.

Watch whether the Jiva NPA LLC designation signals operational continuity under new ownership or reflects corporate restructuring. Name-change filings often indicate entity refinancing or management transition but do not necessarily imply operational disruption if the license maintains active status.
