The Hemp Hound membership update and directory push
But first...
Now, back to business!
Since March of this year, The Hemp Hound Agency has been working its socks off in an effort to get some key industry concerns heard in the never ending saga that is Novel Foods for CBD products.
But we're not here to talk about that today as there is more to the world of legal cannabis in the UK and EU, so lets talk about some of the great businesses on the Hemp Hound Directory.
We've got some great companies worth getting in touch with, whether you're looking for new or alternative products to complete your range, or services to help your business run more smoothly, we've got you covered.
The Directory itself comes with a convenient and easy to use landing page, from here you're presented with the following lists for all the B2B Hemp & CBD services you could need.
The lists are exactly what they say on the tin, so do feel free to take a look around.
When it comes to listed companies, everyone has their niche. It's not just about the products and services that they offer, but the ethos behind them.

And renewed members?
2022 has been a tough year for everyone, and that's just with the ongoing situation with Novel Foods. Some companies struggled to recover after the Covid Lockdowns, where as others are now having to adapt to the ever looming cost of living crisis.
To all of those who who have closed over this time, you won't be forgotten, and I hope you managed to find a new journey, and with new adventures. If you've walked into something that could at one point be introduced to Novel Foods though, you're mad!!!
That being said, a fair few companies have survived these hard times, and some have actually been able to not just adapt to the new way of the world, but also increase their visibility and market share. Hats off to you if you happen to be in that number!
And here's a few of those companies who are returning for the next part of their journey with The Hemp Hound Agency!

Introducing Hemp Hound TV
This started of as a thought, but over time it's become a necessity. This directory push for example has already taken my 3 days to write, and the intention to shorten that process by engaging a bit more in a video format. I'll still write articles of course, but not to the extent I have been over the last 9 or so months.
So far in the 1 month that it's been live, Hemp Hound TV has only really covered the Hemp Hound's public interest disclosure complaint that was submitted to the FSA and focuses on their handling of Novel Foods. That's about to change though, with interviews, news and reviews planned to be released very soon.
So how about becoming part of the pack?
At The Hemp Hound Agency, you'll know that your concerns will be listened to, you will have a voice, and you'll be personally kept up to date with industry movement.
It costs as little as £385 for the year, get's you on a promoted directory, and you'll have the chance to get your business, and your industry opinions aired on Hemp Hound TV. All you have to do is email cefyn.jones@hemphound.co.uk and ask for more details.
