Who decides what company is honest and what company isn't? If a hemp producer has its way, it won't be Jessica Alba. Honest Herbal, the manufacturer of Full Spectrum CBD Hemp Products, is defending its right to describe its products as "Honest." On September 26, 2017, The Honest Company filed a trademark lawsuit claiming that Honest Herbal could not use the word "Honest" to describe its CBD Hemp products. Honest Herbal will defend its right, and the right of others, to fairly describe their products and services as honest, according to the company.
Honest Herbal is owned and operated by Kristy Redmon, a pharmacist with 24 years of experience. In response to the emerging opioid epidemic in the US, Redmon crafted a unique line of CBD compounds derived from industrial grade hemp, as governed by the US Department of Agriculture. Honest Herbal does not work with medical or recreational cannabis. Rather, Redmon's line of CBD products is produced from CBD rich hemp extract in a regulated environment and designed to give physicians and patients an alternative to traditional pharmaceuticals.
According to Honest Herbal, the suit was filed in response to news that Honest Herbal received two awards from Dope Magazine for its innovative line of products. While The Honest Company has used the word "honest" in branding its unrelated products, thousands of companies in the US use the word "honest" to fairly describe their products and brand, notes Honest Herbal.
Honest Herbal may be honest, but it's strapped for cash, too. The company has launched a funding campaign, which can be accessed at www.FundRazr.com/HonestHerbal.
