When the Stanley brothers dove into the cannabis business, they had been actively seeking CBD genetics in wild hemp enduring from the World War II Hemp for Victory campaign in which farmers supported troops. Some of these unique, life-changing genetics foraged in the plains of America became the foundation of their CBD hemp extract products, Charlotte’s Web. Named after a brave little girl, Charlotte Figi, whose remarkable story with the brothers told by Dr. Sanjay Gupta on CNN five years ago is one of the greatest cannabis journeys ever shared. It opened the door to change laws, research, and most importantly, to help millions. It gave the Stanley Brothers a bigger mission - to pursue quality of life through cannabinoids for everyone. This is the Charlotte’s Web mission. In 2018, Charlotte’s Web successfully completed an IPO and is the number one hemp-based CBD market leader.
