Delta-8 THC: More Risk Than Reward

Hemp product producers and sellers must consider a large number of legal and regulatory compliance risks each day.

United StatesCannabis & Hemp

Hemp product producers and sellers must consider a large number of legal and regulatory compliance risks each day. 

Are their inputs and plant material coming from legally compliant sources?  Are their products, packaging, and sales and marketing activities compliant with federal laws and regulations, like the Federal Food, Drug & Cosmetic Act and the Federal Trade Commission Act?  And are those same products, packaging, and sales and marketing activities compliant with state-level laws in each jurisdiction where the company operates or sells goods?  Existing regulatory uncertainties for the industry as a whole and the patchwork of state-level laws developing around the country make it difficult for anyone to manage risk from day-to-day.  And as new product trends develop, often forcing lawmakers and regulators to play catch-up with the industry, it can become even more difficult for hemp product producers and sellers to manage their risk and compliance obligations.
