RJ AG has been licensed as a manufacturing operator in Washington, according to the state license roster updated August 12. The approval comes as Washington's adult-use market maintains 1,009 active manufacturing licenses.

The same roster update logged 12 license closures, including operators such as Evolve Cannabis, Stickys, Fillabong, and DTC Holdings (listed multiple times). The net effect of today's licensing activity—one new manufacturer offset by multiple closures—reflects ongoing churn in Washington's established supply chain.

Watch whether RJ AG's entry signals a shift in manufacturing consolidation or capacity, particularly given the volume of same-day deactivations across the retail and upstream segments.
