Kudzu Cannabis Company, LLC has been issued a new retail license in Mississippi as of August 28, according to the state license roster. The licensing follows a lapse in the operator's prior license, which the state roster marked inactive on August 24—a four-day gap that suggests either a renewal process or reinstatement of operating authorization.

The reissuance occurs amid brisk licensing activity across Mississippi's medical cannabis market. The state roster shows 191 open retail locations, 108 cultivation operators, 42 manufacturers, and 2 testing labs as of August 28. Between August 13 and August 28, the state issued at least six new retail licenses and licenses in cultivation, manufacturing, and testing, while recording four operator license closures, indicating steady market churn.

Watch whether Kudzu Cannabis or other recently relicensed operators face further disruptions, and whether Mississippi's high frequency of closures and openings reflects underlying compliance issues or normal market consolidation.
