As recent as 2017, 14 percent of the $190 million in hemp-derived CBD sales were registered by natural product retailers, according to Hemp Business Journal data. By 2022, those same retailers should account for 28 percent of the projected $646 million in hemp-derived CBD sales. Cannabidiol (CBD) Oil is now being used for a growing number of uses including as a pain and inflammation reliever, treating insomnia and anxiety while even joining the cancer fight with anti-proliferative and pro-apoptotic effects. The cannabis compound took center stage at Natural Products Expo West recently when the massive trade show hosted its first-ever CBD Summit. The goal, organizers said, was to provide a glimpse of the market potential for products made with the hemp-based extract. "This is the hottest product in the history of natural products, and there's an opportunity for retailers to really sink their teeth into this whole hemp category," Josh Hendrix, director of business development for Las Vegas-based extract company CV Sciences Inc., told some 500 people in attendance. A stream of doctors, lawyers, retailers and producers discussed how the non-psychoactive CBD - or, more specifically, "hemp-derived, full-spectrum phytocannabinoid" products - could contribute to a $140 billion industry focused on health-and-wellness products. They equated cannabinoids to the emergence of Vitamin C or fish oils, claiming untapped opportunities for members of the natural products industry to supply consumers' dietary, nutritional and wellness needs. Active in the cannabis industry include: PotNetwork Holding Inc. (OTC: POTN), American Cannabis Company, Inc. (OTC: AMMJ), Marijuana Company of America, Inc. (OTC: MCOA), Medical Marijuana, Inc. (OTC: MJNA), mCig, Inc. (OTC: MCIG)
