Rhize Cannabis Company, LLC has been licensed as a manufacturing operator in Vermont, according to state license records updated July 30. The approval comes as Vermont's adult-use market sustains 93 active manufacturing licenses alongside 322 cultivation operators and 111 retail locations.

The licensing marks a notable turnover in the state's supply chain. Related closures in late July indicate Rhize and three other operators—All Bliss Cannabis (cultivation), Craft Cannabis Co. Manufacturing, and Last Minute Farm (cultivation)—had licenses deactivated days before reappearing as new licensees. The pattern suggests possible license renewals or entity restructurings rather than net-new entrants.

Vermont's market remains nascent: May 2026 sales reached $13.3 million year-to-date. Watch whether the state's recent regulatory adjustments—including doubled daily purchase limits and lab-testing updates—stabilize retail velocity alongside this manufacturing expansion.
