While Arizona does not currently issue a standalone "distribution" license, the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) regulates marijuana establishments which can encompass various activities, including cultivation, manufacturing, and retail, with provisions for future delivery rules. Marijuana delivery, the official term for distribution in Arizona, is currently illegal until the ADHS adopts specific rules for it, which is expected between January 1, 2023, and January 1, 2025. This indicates an evolving landscape with impending opportunities for licensed marijuana establishments to expand into delivery services.
