Balanced Health Botanicals’ CBDistillery™, a wholly-owned subsidiary of Village Farms International (NASDAQ: VFF) and one of the best-selling CBD brands in the United States, today announced that its full range of hemp-derived gummies is now manufactured in-house at its GMP-certified facility south of Denver, Colorado. This internalization demonstrates the company’s commitment to offering quality wellness products while enabling greater innovation, agility, and inventory control.
“The internalization highlights one of our key competencies as a company: manufacturing excellence,” said Bill Stoufer, President of Balanced Health Botanicals. “Now we can put our GMP to use by maintaining complete quality control over the process, from start to finish. Our team is proud to have a hand in making the top-selling gummies available on the market today, right here in our own facility.”
With the changing regulatory landscape among U.S. states on the delivery of hemp-derived CBD products, Stoufer also cited the company’s greater capacity to develop new and seasonal product lines with a short turnaround time since internalizing manufacturing.
“It gives us a manufacturing platform that allows for innovation, limited-time offerings, and the ability to quickly pivot. Now we’re able to be nimbler in response so that we can continue to deliver CBD products with the benefits our customers are relying on to support their wellness.”
Mark Grunder, Balanced Health Botanicals’ Vice President of Operations, reiterated the company’s commitment to providing high-quality, safe, and trustworthy products as one of the benefits of internalization.
“Bringing our gummy manufacturing in-house enables Balanced Health Botanicals to control supply chain quality. We’re now even better equipped to restrict the presence of pesticides and other contaminants in our products, while also ensuring only natural colors and flavors are employed,” he said. “It also means we can produce gummies with shorter lead times in accordance with customer demand; so ultimately, products are fresher to market.”
CBDistillery™ has seen early success since bringing gummy manufacturing in-house. A limited-edition, holiday-themed CBD gummy SKU has maintained a 5-star rating among verified customers since their release in late 2024. Customers can look forward to more small-batch, seasonal product releases and flavor combinations in the coming months.
