In July 2018, I embarked on a journey that would redefine my career and set a new standard in the hemp industry. Cerena, a luxury hemp company, was born out of a desire to offer something exceptional: certified organic full-spectrum CBD tinctures and beauty products directly to consumers. From the get-go, Cerena was more than a business; it was a mission to change perceptions and elevate the quality within the hemp space.
The hemp industry, especially pre-2018 Farm Bill, was akin to the Wild West. The market was flooded with low-quality products, often produced under questionable conditions. Moreover, navigating the legal and financial hurdles presented by the industry's regulatory gray areas was a monumental task, particularly when it came to securing reliable credit card processing for our online sales.
My journey with Cerena was a testament to the power of vision, dedication, and innovation in an emerging industry. By prioritizing quality, sustainability, and customer experience, we were able to distinguish Cerena as a leader in the luxury hemp market, setting new standards and paving the way for future brands. The legacy of Cerena, marked by pioneering efforts and operational excellence, continues to inspire and shape the industry landscape.
