"We are excited that Wegmans has recognized the investment and commitment we have made to delivering superior CBD products to consumers," said Kevin MacDermott, President of cbdMD. "Our products have become an essential part of many people's daily health and wellness routine and with cbdMD you can be confident that they are safe and of the highest quality. For us this is a springboard into the grocery channel, and we are thrilled to be working with Wegmans, as leaders in our respective categories, to bring quality and effective cbdMD products to more customers."

The initial launch includes Apple Cider Vinegar and Immune Boost CBD gummies, plus Calm and Focus CBD capsules.
