Sasha's Cannabis has changed its licensee name to Floyds, according to Washington's state license roster updated August 12. The ownership transition comes as the state recorded at least a dozen retail and holding-company license closures on the same day, including The Green Shelf, Stickys, Evolve Cannabis, and others.

Washington's legal cannabis market remains substantial, with 482 open retail locations, 973 cultivation licenses, and 1,009 manufacturing licenses currently active. The name change and concurrent closures suggest ongoing consolidation or operational shifts within the state's retail segment, though the underlying cause of the closures is not specified in available records.

Watch whether additional ownership changes or retail consolidations follow in coming weeks, and whether the state's retail count stabilizes or continues to contract.
