Connoisseur Pharms Inc's 40 Border Lane dispensary license is no longer active, according to Montana's state license roster. The deactivation was recorded October 6, the same date a wave of at least 11 other retail and cultivation licenses across Montana transitioned to inactive status, suggesting a coordinated regulatory update or enforcement action.

Montana's adult-use market currently operates 535 open retail locations alongside 296 cultivation and 181 manufacturing licenses, per state data current as of October 6. The cascading deactivations—including Three Rivers Cannabis, Mary Jane's 406, Ramsey's Remedies, and The Green Bee—do not yet correlate to published monthly sales data, which last recorded approximately $29.7 million in July 2026.

Watch whether additional license deactivations follow or if state regulators issue guidance clarifying the cause. Mass license status changes may signal compliance sweeps, renewal failures, or administrative consolidation rather than individual enforcement.
