Withit Weed has been licensed as a manufacturing operator in Washington, according to the state license roster. The approval comes as Washington's manufacturing sector remains at 1,009 open licenses as of the latest roster update.

The licensing occurred alongside a notable wave of closures: at least a dozen operator licenses across retail and other segments became inactive on the same date, including The Green Shelf, Stickys, Evolve Cannabis, and others. The simultaneous churn suggests routine license cycling rather than a single market event.

Watch whether Withit Weed's entry and the pace of competing closures signals underlying consolidation or market correction in Washington's manufacturing tier, which represents the largest licensed operator class in the state.
