[ 92 ] TOBACCO BUSINESS [ JANUARY / FEBRUARY | 22 ] Another high-performing product from CannaAid’s portfolio is its vegan, pectin-based gummies. These are offered in many different flavors, and customers prefer them due to their outstanding consistency, Groat explains. CannaAid’s large portfolio is what’s helped make it a household name for many in the alternative space. To ensure it continues to remain competitive, CannaAid works closely with legal counsel to remain in compliance and up to date on all of the latest regulations impacting the cannabis and hemp industries. “We have always tried to stay ahead of the curve with product, label and testing requirements in order to comply with the law. The easiest way we can accomplish this is by pulling together in the industry and leaning on the connections we have made in order to all accomplish the same goal,” says Groat. “We also keep an open line of communication with everyone all over the country so we can help this industry move in the right direction.” All of CannaAid’s products are developed in house, enabling the company to constantly improve on the products’ quality and production, and can be found in a wide range of stores. CannaAid’s products are mostly found in tobacco and vape shops that also carry CBD products, but other retail outlets are also having success with the company’s vast alternative portfolio. The hemp and alternative industry is a new booming industry that is taking science, culture and creativity to a whole new level. Unlike tobacco, the various ways you can enjoy hemp are endless. At the end of the day, the tobacco and vape industries pair well with the CBD, hemp and alternative markets, and many retailers will be selling all of them. —Nicholas Groat “ ” From capsules to tinctures to gummies, CannaAid offers a wide range of products for retailers who are looking to capitalize on the growing alternative market.
