These days, CBD is one of the fastest-growing industries globally, with experts predicting that, by 2024, the industry will be worth a staggering 20 billion dollars. With more and countries opening their doors to this profitable product offering, it’s not just nations that are making a profit - some CBD producers are doing pretty well for themselves too! Here, we’ll take a look at some of the leading companies in the CBD products industry in 2021:

Aurora Cannabis

Based in Edmonton, Canada, Aurora Cannabis is an award-winning producer of CBD products and one of the largest CBD oil producers, with an output of a staggering 570,000 kg a year. With worldwide distribution, Aurora Cannabis is currently worth around $4.5 billion across eight facilities.

It’s reported that the company enjoys revenue of a cool $440 million.

2018 saw new legislation for CBD products sweeping the globe, and, as a result, the USA and Canada, in particular, have seen many entrepreneurs getting onboard with this lucrative business. Even within more conservative countries such as the UK, the CBD industry is going from strength to strength, and, in 2020, entrepreneur Angus Taylor caused a stir when he launched UK based Infused Amphora - a CBD wellness venture thought to be the first of its kind within the British isles.

Within the next few years, we’ll almost certainly see more generalized legalization of cannabis products, followed by exciting and innovative producers within what is now a booming business.
