Where to extract CBD in France?

With its great hemp-growing tradition, France could quickly become a center of excellence for the extraction of hemp's active ingredients, whether cannabidiol (CBD) or cannabigerol (CBG), but also all the other minor cannabinoids, and even THC one day.

Strong demand for CBD-based products, including oils, capsules and cosmetics, is driving brands to offer ever more products. To meet this demand, several companies specializing in the extraction of CBD from hemp plants have sprung up in France. In this article, we list some of the most important companies in France that extract French CBD.
