EZ Purchase LLC, doing business as Go Green CBD, is being evicted by Mall at Concord Mills Limited Partnership at 8111 Concord Mills Blvd. in Concord, according to a civil complaint filed June 23 in the Cabarrus County District Court Clerk of Superior Court small claims division.
The Aventura, Florida-based retailer owes $104,770 in rent as of June 1, according to court documents. The store sells CBD and THC products.
The landlord stated that the tenant has refused to vacate the premises. The mall’s owner is Simon, which also owns SouthPark mall and Charlotte Premium Outlets in Charlotte.
Simon could not immediately be reached for comment on Monday, and the firm’s Charlotte-based attorney declined to discuss the case. Go Green CBD officials also declined a request for comment on Monday.
Concord Mills in Concord has 182 stores and restaurants.
With a monthly lease rate of $7,598, according to court documents, the CBD store has been delinquent for nearly 14 months. A hearing is scheduled at 8:30 a.m. Wednesday, July 8, at the Cabarrus County Magistrate’s Office.
Go Green CBD is based in Florida and has seven stores in malls, according to the company’s website. The Concord store is the only location outside of Florida.

At one time, Go Green CBD had 18 mall-based kiosks and storefronts in New York, North Carolina, New Jersey and Florida. The company previously had stores at Northlake Mall in Charlotte, as well as Asheville and Winston-Salem. The Concord store opened in November 2024.
This is the latest in a spate of recent mall-related eviction proceedings in recent weeks.
In June, SouthPark Mall Limited Partnership filed to evict Aroma360 NC Sp LLC, a luxury scenting and retail store at SouthPark Mall at 4400 Sharon Road. Aroma360 is a luxury scenting and retail store.
Aroma360 owes more than $55,816 in rent as of June 1, according to the complaint filed in Mecklenburg County small claims court. At a lease rate of $13,687, the company is roughly four months behind on payments.
The mall is seeking possession of the space, according to court filings. A hearing originally scheduled for Monday, July 6, was continued until July 13.
Meanwhile, at Northlake Mall, owner Hull Property Group also filed a complaint in June to evict a tenant. However, the Atlanta-based real estate firm dismissed its lawsuit against The Juicy Crab restaurant just days before the scheduled magistrate hearing, Mecklenburg court filings show.
