Pattern of the quarter

Label-pipeline failures dominated

Label or cannabinoid-pipeline failures accounted for 80% of recalls this quarter (8 of 10). The dominant DCC verbatim language continues to point at the data flow between the lab COA, the ERP, the label generator, and the printer — failures that the licensee owns regardless of where in the chain the substitution originated.

About this report

Quarterly reports synthesize each completed calendar quarter of California cannabis compliance data published by the Department of Cannabis Control — recall notices from recalls.cannabis.ca.gov and enforcement actions from cannabis.ca.gov/cannabis-laws/compliance-action-records. The underlying index is refreshed daily; quarterly reports are generated once each quarter closes.

Recall category labels (contamination, label/data, mixed, other, packaging) are interpretive groupings applied by Phenominal Consulting based on the verbatim DCC reason language on each notice. They are not DCC's own classification. Enforcement action types (Citation and Fine, Suspension, Revocation, Annual License Denial) are DCC's own labels.

Report generated Jul 1, 2026 · 1:23 PM GMT+0000. Underlying data refreshed daily. Current live tracker: phenominal.io/recalls. Full methodology and citation format on the data page.

A quarter is enough time to fix what produces a recall.
