Notice: Out-of-state vendors contacting retailers about hemp-derived THC products

The CCB has received multiple complaints concerning hemp-derived THC products being offered for sale to licensed Vermont dispensaries. The CCB understands that these products are being offered through marketing emails from out-of-state vendors.

Purchasing and selling hemp-derived THC products is a violation of CCB Rule 2.17. Additionally, buying and selling products from a source that does not hold a current VT license is a violation.

The CCB welcomes the community’s continued efforts to notify our staff when contacted with similar offers.

Updated Guidance Documents

CCB staff have published updated guidance documents to the CCB website, including:

• Licensing and Application Fees Guidance
• Product Labeling and Product Registration Guidance

CCB Staff will review the relevant updates to the Product Labeling and Product Registration Guidance in the October Peer Networking Event. Stay tuned for meeting details.
