As you have problem already heard, that CBD shops in Texas are booming. This is because in 2018 when the Farm Bill Act passed, this allowed any products containing under 0.3% in THC was allowed to be sold legally. This opened up a door allowing CBD shops (and other hit shops) to start selling THCA, Delta-8, Delta-9, and so many other products. This has enticed the citizens of Texas and have been very indulgent to these CBD shops.
CBD shops in Texas are opening everywhere. The question everyone is asking is, how can I open a CBD shops in Texas? Well, believe it or not (especially if you are in the cannabis or CBD industry) the process is actual fairly simple. Depending on the type of shop you are wanting to open, here are the exact step you will need to follow to get started.
Getting A License to sell CBD and THCA products "The Retail Hemp Registration"
This license process can get started using the online website dshs.texas.gov then proceed to looking for "Retail Hemp Registration Application". The process for applying just asked you basic questions. You do not need to undergo a national background check or need to come in to get fingerprints done. The fee is around $250 and is a quick process. You are not required to be a citizen of Texas or have a physical location there.
This is meaning that when you open your store and are selling products from suppliers, you are following the guidelines for this license. Meaning, you cannot make any changes to the packaging or the name. It must remain the same information and condition as you had received it.
Obtaining a "The Consumable Hemp Program" License
This license is for someone who is looking to process or manufacture consumable hemp products for smoking. It will also be for those who are going to process, compound, package, repackage, manufacture, relabling, and labeling any hemp products.
This is a little bit more of an applying process than the "retail hemp registration" license. You will need to complete a Federal Bureau of Investigation Authorization Form. A Hemp Property Owner Letter (there are directions on how to do this @https://www.dshs.texas.gov/consumable-hemp-program/dshs-consumable-hemp-product-license-process). Last, but not least you will need a Legal description of the property and Geographic Information System (GIS) coordinates.
Other than this, you should be all set to go other than a store front and the materials and funds to get started. The hemp industry is booming and is only going to get bigger.
