• Hemp Industry Daily and Nielsen Research peg
the smokable hemp market at around $80
million total sales.
• According to their analysis, the market is
currently divided evenly between loose hemp
buds and CBD pre-rolls.
• By 2025, however, the smokable hemp market
is expected to swell to upwards of $300 million
with a 500% increase in sales growth.
• The average annual spend on smokable hemp
products already exceeds average spend on
pipe tobacco and loose cigarette tobacco, and
is expected to surpass cigarettes by 2025

10g seed’s calories are protein! This is more per serving than chia seeds and flax seeds.
PROTEIN
Rich in healthy fats! Hemp hearts are over 30% fat and contain great fatty acids, particularly
omega-3 and omega-6. Hemp also contains GLA, which is harder to find and prevents
inflammation. GLA also helps to bind and balance the body’s hormones.

US Hemp Market Outlook
Plant Based Protein is not a fad it’s a consumer evolution trend
More US Hemp Production but still heavy reliance on Canadian Supply to
meet current demands and quality.
Bulk Sales will increase with more awareness of blending opportunities.
Breads, Cereals, Snack Bars, Baking Mixes.
More Private Labeling will occur. Selling into existing customer base who
already have brand loyalty for other products is key growth area. Large
Retailers who want to ignite their sales with a “Hot Product”.
Repeat: “Not a fad”! Plant based proteins and organics are what the
consumers will continue to desire.
CBD Continues to be stifled by FDA policy and Risk to Retailers
