We can’t wait to share the impact of these offerings with the dynamic and discerning California market.”
The soon-to-launch Irwin Naturals Cannabis suite will feature tinctures enriched with cannabinoids and hempseed oil, along with capsules fortified with hemp seed oil and medium-chain triglyceride (MCT) oil. Four meticulously crafted, capsule formulations are set to shake the market: Get Lit (THC heavy), Stress Defy + THC & CBD, Balance (1 to 1 CBD & THC), and Power To Sleep + THC & CBN.
Irwin Naturals was founded in 1994 and its best-in-class nutraceuticals have built it into a brand that is now recognized in 80 percent of American households.1 It has operated profitably for the past 27 years,2 and it is now seeking to use the equity and power of that brand in emerging markets like cannabis and psychedelic mental-health clinics.
Irwin Naturals first entered into the cannabis industry in 2018 when it began infusing hemp-based CBD into its herbal supplements available in the United States. This year, it began expanding its brand to products with THC, with the goal of becoming the first household brand to have its products available in all 38 states where cannabis is currently legal. Because cannabis is not legal at the federal level in the United States, Irwin Naturals Cannabis has gone state by state, reaching licensing agreements with cannabis manufacturers. It has already announced agreements in nine US states and in Canada.
