About Love Hemp Group
Founded as a bedroom start-up in 2015, Love Hemp produces and supplies more than 40 CBD product lines, including oral oils, sprays, cosmetics, topicals and a variety of edible and water-based CBD products. Love Hemp's journey started when the father of one of the founders turned to natural products and health supplements during his battle with cancer. It was at this point that the founders saw CBD's potential, but unhappy with the general poor standards of the industry, they established Love Hemp – the high quality, trusted and ethical CBD brand. Today, Love Hemp is the UK's multi-award winning, leading supplier of CBD products, and is also sold worldwide, as millions of people across the globe grab life by the leaf every day.
