York's first dedicated CBD brand reveals plans for three new stores

The first dedicated CBD store in North Yorkshire has announced plans to open three more sites across the next year.

Hemp Well, which launched earlier this month, is based on High Petergate in York, and has created six full time jobs.

Following the launch, the company has revealed plans to open three more stores across Yorkshire in the next 12 months.

Its products, which include a range of CBD oils, chocolates and spa products, are manufactured at York Science Park.

Philip James, director of Hemp Well, commented: “We are delighted to have finally opened our first store in York which is the culmination of lots of hard work behind the scenes growing, researching and developing the products.

“Having relocated to York with our young family several years ago, we have been incredibly fortunate to be able to tap into the science community based here in the city and are hugely grateful for their support.

“It is great to finally be able to meet our customers in person having operated solely online for the past two years.

“A lot of people are very curious about the benefits of CBD and the store now means they can come along and chat to myself or Lisa and ask us anything they need to know.

“Research suggests Hemp Well’s CBD products can help with a variety of different issues however, many of our customers in the last week have talked about their anxiety and stress related worries in particular.

“I think this is something which is only going to continue to grow as we come out of the coronavirus pandemic and the store now gives us the opportunity to educate people about the potential benefits of CBD and share our expertise and experiences with them.”
