Top 10 CBD Companies of 2022

Once an unwelcome development, CBD has officially gone mainstream, with 14% of Americans using the wellness product, according to a 2019 Gallup poll. People use it for a wide variety of reasons: 40% use CBD products for pain relief, while 20% of people use them for anxiety management and 11% for sleep control. Although these numbers amplify the many uses and benefits of CBD products, the number of options in the market has become increasingly overwhelming, leaving those who use them weary and confused. For this reason, there is an emerging need to cut the noise in order to help people choose what is best for them.

Out of thousands of CBD companies across the United States, these ten providers have made it to this list. These companies guarantee not only the potency of their CBD products but also the quality.

1. Soul CBD

On a mission to promote better living, Soul CBD boasts colors that exude transparency, quality, and efficacy. But not only do their products work, they are the best tasting wellness products on the market. It is founded by two brilliant minds, Angie and Mike Lee, who have witnessed the impact of CBD in their lives. Although the brand is widely recognized for its wide variety of products that are organically farmed, gluten-free, and third-party lab tested, its products emphasize the founders’ vision, which is for the consumers to “taste their relief.”

2. Cornbread Hemp 

Cornbread Hemp is a family-owned business that made its name on organic, flower-only, full-spectrum CBD products. It was the first CBD brand in Kentucky to earn the United States Department of Agriculture or USDA organic seal, which is a big differentiator in the market. Although the brand offers a limited variety of CBD products, it manages to include all of the basics, including oils for pets. Pricing falls into the moderate-to-expensive range.

Joy Organics offers a broad spectrum of CBD products that are extensively tested, certified organic, and incredibly well-reviewed.

The company is committed to transparency at every stage, with the results of internal and third-party lab testing readily accessible.

4. Lazarus Naturals

Launched in 2014, this Portland-based, employee-owned company has managed to establish itself solidly across the CBD industry. Lazarus Naturals is forthcoming about the sourcing, manufacturing, and testing of its CBD products, and many of its products are vegan. It sells its full-spectrum and isolate CBD oils in a range of seasonal and standard flavors, such as chai tea latte, apple cider, blood orange, winter mint, and many more. Its CBD fruit tarts also come in sour fruit flavors. Flavored options like these are a good choice if you don’t like the earthy flavor of hemp.

10. Green Gorilla

This farm-to-shelf company offers CBD products in small sample sizes, so it is easy to test anything from gummies to CBD oil before committing to the expense of a full-size version. Green Gorilla says they were the first USDA-certified organic CBD brand in the country, and the company is committed to regenerative and sustainable farming practices. Pricing is moderate to expensive compared to other brands but quite affordable if you’re opting for the sample sizes.
