The global CBD consumer health market size was valued USD 10.1 Billion in 2020 and is projected to reach USD 57.6 Billion by 2028, expanding at a CAGR of 24.6 % during the forecast period, 2021–2028. The growth of the market is attributed to the beneficial government reforms for cannabidiol (CBD) legalization in various regions.
Cannabidiol has become more favored dietary supplements due to non-narcotic qualities. It helps consumers to get benefited by health advantages of cannabis without getting intoxicated, unlike tetrahydrocannabinol (THC). CBD supplements, compared to prescription or over-the-counter medicines, are thought to offer better natural alternatives for treating stiffness, pain, anxiety, stress, and other medical issues. The low THC content has made hemp-derived CBD favored among manufacturers. The availability of favorable hemp farming rules in a number of countries, including the US, Canada, China, India, the UK is boosting demand for hemp-derived CBD products and helping them to increase their exports.
The availability of products as topicals, analgesics, edibles, oils, and tinctures is propelling the CBD consumer health products globally. Brick and mortar stores that previously sold non-CBD products are now focusing on offering CBD-based products. For instance, in March 2019, CVS Pharmacy began offering hemp-derived CBD topicals in 800 retail locations across eight states in the US. Additionally, Walgreens Boots Alliance announced its intent to offer CBD topicals in 1,500 shops across the US in the coming years.
The COVID-19 pandemic began to spread over the world in the first half of 2020, infecting millions of people globally, prompting major countries around the world to impose prohibitions on manufacturing facilities and retail stores. Most businesses have been severely hit, with the exception of medical supplies and life support items. However, relaxation in restrictions is expected to positively influence the market growth.
Green Roads, Elixinol LLC, and Isodiol International are increasing their presence in different geographies and increasing customer awareness of their brand.
In January 2019, Aphria bought CC Pharma GmbH, a Germany-based pharmaceutical wholesaler. More than 13,000 pharmacies in Germany and other EU member states are served by this company. Aphria's global presence in Germany and other Europe-based countries is expected to strengthen due to their acquisition move.
