Case Mandal, President of Cannadips, said, “Cannadips is the original tobacco-free and nicotine-free CBD pouch and we pride our Humboldt County traditions of innovation and continual technological evolution to help consumers nationwide enjoy superior dip experiences. We scoured the market for the best technology to put into our products and DehydraTECH was, hands down, the most palatable and efficacious delivery system for our CBD products. Cannadips CBD pouches are available nationwide in 5,500 stores, and online at www.cannadipscbd.com.”
Brent Mann, Founder and President of New World CBD, offered that “New World CBD is family owned and operated and is striving to become the best CBD company in America.

Vassili Kotlova, President of Impact Naturals said that “Impact Naturals is a science- and health-focused group with decades of biotech and pharmaceutical experience where our R&D seeks to unlock the full potential of natural compounds to benefit human health and wellness.
