Earth Blend Inc, a Type 6 manufacturer holding license DCC-10004404, is no longer active according to California's state license roster. The deactivation was recorded October 8, the same day three other operator licenses—Cali Boyz, Qubie, and others—were similarly marked inactive.

The closure appears part of a broader churn in California's licensed market. State records show at least six operator licenses deactivated in the past week, alongside concurrent ownership transfers (STIIIZY Alameda, THE CURE COMPANY MELROSE, ZZFLUX DTLA) and new operator licenses issued. California maintains 433 active manufacturing licenses among 6,081 total open retail, cultivation, and lab operations.

Watch whether the pace of license deactivations correlates with enforcement actions, voluntary surrenders, or operational consolidation. The simultaneous appearance of new microbusiness and distribution entrants suggests market reshuffling rather than contraction, though underlying reasons for individual closures remain opaque from roster data alone.
