Urban World LLC, holder of adult-use cultivator license OCM-CULT-24-000131, has been marked inactive in New York's state license roster as of Aug. 27. The closure appears in a batch update alongside five other New York license deactivations recorded the same day, suggesting potential administrative or compliance-related removals.

New York's active cultivation base stands at 247 licenses across the state, with 415 pending applications in queue. The simultaneous deactivations and six documented ownership transfers—including rebrands of retailers and farms—point to continued portfolio churn in the market.

Watch whether New York discloses reasons for the cluster of deactivations and whether Urban World reapplies or transfers its license interests.
