Sun King LLC's cultivation license (MCUL006041) has been deactivated, according to the state license roster updated September 11. The closure marks the sixth operator license deactivation recorded in Mississippi since early September, following similar exits by Cannacultivation LLC, Dog Daze Farm LLC, Superior Labs LLC, MS Mary LLC, and Collard Greens LLC.

Against this backdrop of supply-side exits, Mississippi's medical market has logged concurrent retail and manufacturing openings. State records show 191 active retail locations, 105 cultivators, and 41 manufacturers as of the September 11 update—suggesting net operator churn rather than wholesale contraction. The regulatory cause of Sun King's deactivation is not disclosed in the roster.

Watch whether the closure rate among cultivators—now at least six since early September—continues or stabilizes, and whether retail demand pressures shift as cultivation capacity recalibrates.
