WherezHemp stands out in the hemp space by offering a fully integrated backend, which brings together sourcing, formulation, packaging, inventory, and fulfillment under one roof. In an industry where most brands still juggle multiple vendors and disjointed workflows, this unified approach eliminates the inefficiencies that often delay launches, increase costs, dilute quality, or put compliance at risk.
This operational clarity is becoming critical. As several U.S. states tighten restrictions on Delta-9 THC, particularly in regions where recreational cannabis remains illegal, more brands are shifting toward cannabinoids like THCA to maintain consumer appeal while avoiding the legal scrutiny and psychoactive effects associated with THC. But making that pivot requires more than just a product tweak; it demands agility across sourcing, formulation, packaging and compliance.
WherezHemp is built for such a shift. Its end-to-end model simplifies reformulation and production while assuring brands stay aligned with evolving regulations at every stage. The result is fewer missteps, faster time to shelf, and more room for brands to focus on what moves the business forward, product strategy, sales and marketing.
“Our location is an added benefit,” says Ryan McFarland, CEO. “Being in North Carolina gives us a solid foundation to operate with consistency. A strong agricultural base surrounds us, we have reliable freight lines at our doorstep, and we benefit from a clear regulatory environment. It means we can source quicker and scale faster, and that’s exactly what the industry demands.”
This positioning proved essential when WherezHemp partnered with a THCA brand struggling to scale. Despite strong demand and a loyal customer base, the brand faced persistent sourcing challenges and logistical delays. WherezHemp stepped in, tapped into its farm network to secure compliant THCA flower, and oversaw the entire transportation chain to its North Carolina facility. Leveraging high-speed systems, such as a three-way packer and PrimoCombi multi-head scales, production surged to 90 to 98 units per minute. Within three months, the brand had tripled its revenue and established itself as a top national player in the THCA space.
Fueling the Brands with Market-Fit Products
WherezHemp creates custom product formulations with a sharp, trend-sensitive mindset, constantly tracking what’s emerging, what’s fading, and what’s capturing consumer attention.
In the industry since 2018, WherezHemp has the experience that leads to comprehensive market foresight. It maintains a front-row seat to shifting trends, regulatory changes, and evolving consumer behavior. That kind of firsthand exposure sharpens intuition and gives brands a real edge, because when you’ve seen the market grow from the inside, you’re better equipped to build what sells on the outside.
The science team and lab partners take Delta-8 and other minor hemp cannabinoids and formulate them into functional and market-ready products. Using advanced extraction methods, they isolate delicate compounds with care, preserving their full potency and character to support the entourage effect. These actives are then infused with precision across vapes, THCA flower and infused pre-rolls to ensure consistency in every draw or puff. The result is a lineup of clean, effect-driven products that meet market demand and scale without friction.
But even the best formulations depend on quality inputs, and that’s another area where WherezHemp excels. It works directly with over 60 licensed and vetted farms across multiple states, maintaining a diverse, traceable supply chain. This direct-sourcing model supports consistency in production and provides the agility to respond quickly to changing compliance requirements and market shifts.
On the production side, WherezHemp operates with high technical sophistication. Automated systems, high-throughput lines and rigorous quality controls ensure a balance of speed and precision, so brands can get to market faster, with less risk and fewer slowdowns, from concept to commercialization.
Legal clarity reinforces that operational confidence. With in-house general counsel and legal partners specializing in federal and state regulations, WherezHemp makes sure every aspect of its process is aligned with current laws. This legal infrastructure isn’t just for internal use. It’s shared with clients through ongoing guidance and a cost-effective compliance framework. The result is fewer surprises, smoother scaling, and a more resilient path to growth.
Store, Pack, Ship
All the critical physical components that power product deliveries are sourced, stored, and ready for use. From vape cartridges and batteries to mouthpieces, blunt wraps, pre-roll cones, filters and child-resistant packaging, each item is procured globally, often from trusted partners in China, and stored securely on-site until production begins. Once production starts, the hardware is pulled directly from inventory and integrated into the run without delay. This allows brands to efficiently manage warehouse space and avoid chasing down vendors or dealing with last-minute shortages.
Just as defining is packaging, it is designed to reflect the brand’s voice, values, and aesthetic. WherezHemp’s turnkey white-label packaging solutions enable brands to make a lasting impression, from shelf to unboxing, delivering both functionality and brand distinction.
A tech-enabled warehouse management system (WMS) powers real-time tracking of all components, scanning items in and out, and offers complete transparency into what’s in stock, what’s been allocated for production, and what’s ready for fulfillment. It’s a system designed to give brands clarity without operational burden. And the moment production wraps up, WherezHemp’s integrated 3PL capabilities handle all aspects of fulfillment, from direct shipping to retail and consumer distribution.
Where We’re Headed
Big moves are already underway. WherezHemp is executing a growth strategy centered around key investments in infrastructure, market expansion, and innovation. Over the next two quarters, it plans to establish three licensed cannabis manufacturing facilities in Massachusetts, New Jersey, and New York, marking its official entry into the licensed cannabis market. Already one of the largest hemp manufacturers in the country, WherezHemp’s expansion enables it to support crossover brands navigating both regulated markets.
Physical capacity has expanded to keep pace with this momentum. The company recently added warehouse space to its 80,000-square-foot facility in North Carolina. It now supports storage for over 2,000 pallets across raw materials, hardware, packaging and finished goods. This enables seamless fulfillment, whether to distributors, retailers, or directly to consumers, and reinforces WherezHemp’s role as a full-service supply chain partner for the most prominent brands and multi-state operators in the industry.
At the same time, automation plays a key role in boosting speed and maintaining product quality. WherezHemp has invested heavily in cutting-edge equipment across all product lines, including vapes, pre-rolls, flower, and blunts. These upgrades have not only improved efficiency but also created significant runway for onboarding new clients. With operations running at just 30 percent of its total production capacity, WherezHemp is primed for rapid scale without disruption.
Looking beyond infrastructure, it continues to evaluate emerging domestic markets while exploring international opportunities where hemp-derived cannabinoids are gaining momentum. These external moves are matched by internal innovation. WherezHemp is doubling down on research and development, working closely with the team to pioneer next-generation cannabinoids, advanced formulations and innovative delivery systems, ensuring its clients stay at the leading edge of product innovation.
All of this builds toward a pivotal moment. As cannabis brands increasingly look to the hemp category to expand their visibility, gain national shelf space, and strengthen consumer loyalty, WherezHemp is bringing infrastructure, insight, and agility to the table, making sure its partners are not just in the game but ahead of it.
