Market Challenges

• The CBD market is currently experiencing price fluctuations due to the newness of the product and the high demand for it. The legalization of hemp production in 2018 and the lengthy and costly extraction process using specialized machinery, such as CO2, contribute to the high cost of CBD oil. Additionally, third-party lab analysis is required for every product sold, increasing production costs and ultimately, the final price for consumers. These factors may pose challenges for the growth of the CBD market in the forecast period.
• The CBD market, featuring non-psychoactive compound Cannabidiol derived from cannabis and hemp, has experienced significant growth. However, challenges persist. THC, the psychoactive component in marijuana, can cause regulatory hurdles. The European Commission's European Medicines Agency (EMA) classifies CBD as a novel food, requiring stringent approval processes for CBD-based products in food, beverages, and cosmetics. Despite these challenges, opportunities abound. Pharmaceutical sector players like Echo Pharmaceuticals are developing CBD-based medications for medical applications, such as epilepsy. Fitness-oriented citizens seek CBD for stress relief, leading to demand for CBD-infused tinctures, oils, concentrates, topical solutions, capsules, and even body lotions, lip balms, gums, chocolates, candies, and coffee. B2B wholesalers and e-commerce platforms cater to this growing market, offering a diverse range of Hemp-based products, including edibles, topicals, and beverages. Immunomodulatory attributes of CBD attract consumers, expanding its reach beyond traditional markets.
