SEXPOT, a California equity retailer, has changed its licensee name to The Green Paradise, according to state license records updated September 6. The shift appears part of broader ownership or operational restructuring across California's retail cannabis market.

The rebranding occurs amid a cluster of similar licensee name changes filed the same day—including Curbside to JBLR Joint Venture, Cookies locations transitioning to Jiva entities, and AVENUE to DEC Medical Group. These simultaneous filings suggest coordinated ownership transfers or holding-company reorganizations rather than isolated business decisions.

With 1,259 active retail licenses currently in California, monitoring whether The Green Paradise maintains operational continuity and sales performance will clarify whether the name change reflects substantive ownership shifts or administrative restructuring.
