In addition to organically grown hemp-based CBD, these pet treats contain a variety of other nutritious ingredients, blended to appeal to, and improve, a cat’s or dog’s quality of life. Having an endocannabinoid system very similar to that of humans, animals also have cannabinoid receptors throughout their bodies. Whether a pet is healthy or suffering from ailment, Diamond CBD pet treats are formulated to contribute to help optimize canine or feline health.

Diamond CBD, Inc., recently spent a highly advantageous week at the 2018 Global Pet Expo in Orlando, Florida, where it garnered interest from over 200 wholesale distributors well positioned to carry the brand’s groundbreaking MediPets product line. Diamond CBD offers pet retailers a unique opportunity to participant in this growing trend identified and forecasted by leading research firms. As a result, wholesale distributors around the world are gaining increased familiarity with Diamond CBD, Inc.’s products and the Company’s innovative approach to treating health and wellness in humans, and, now in animals.

In 2017, American pet owners spent more than $69.36 billion on their pets. Of that number, nearly $15 million was spent on over-the-counter health and wellness products, a sector now enriched by Diamond CBD’s innovative “MediPets” product line. According to Euromonitor International’s presentation, State of Global Pet Care: Trends and Growth Opportunities, the global pet care industry is expected to reach $110 billion in 2017. This report cites the increasing “humanization of pets” among pet owners as a key factor contributing to over $14 billion in incremental growth to this market over the last 5 years.

Technavio, a leading market research firm, recently analyzed the global pet care industry and forecast a CAGR of 5% between 2016-2020. According to the report, rising pet ownership combined with increased consumer spending on premium natural and organic pet care products are fundamental factors driving growth. As consumer awareness of overall health and fitness issues evolves, the desire to invest accordingly in the right products heightens the demand for premium nutritional and wellness supplements. Diamond CBD, Inc. is structured to take advantage of this opportunity, bringing to market extremely high potency CBD oil extracts, formulated specifically for the unique needs of all family members.
