SEATTLE--()--With Marley Mellow Mood CBD tea as the highlight, Docklight Brands, a pioneering consumer brand company, announced today that the company is unveiling a new portfolio of lifestyle CBD beverages, confections and skin care products at the 2019 National Association of Convenience Stores Show in Atlanta at booth #5860 on October 1-4, 2019. Docklight will brief retailers on trends in the CBD market, updates on regulations, and how to select the optimal assortment of CBD products for their stores.

“CBD, as a category, has the potential to impact convenience retailers’ bottom line greatly,” says Damian Marano, CEO of Docklight Brands. “We believe the expanded availability of CBD products will drive trial, allowing convenience retailers to cultivate a consumer base of return customers who will frequently purchase CBD products.” He added, “Docklight Brands is currently in discussion with national retail chains and distributors to have product in market in early October 2019.” Docklight has signed distribution agreements with several distributors, including Hudson Distribution. Expansion plans also include selling products in Europe, Asia, and North and South America.

Among the highlights Docklight is planning for the 2019 NACS show:

Marley CBD-infused teas, chocolates, and skin care

Working with the family of international reggae icon Bob Marley, Docklight Brands has the exclusive rights to develop a portfolio of consumer lifestyle CBD products to celebrate his life and legacy. With three flavors of Marley Mellow Mood CBD tea, two flavors of Marley CBD Wellness Shots, four flavors of Marley CBD chocolates and five types of Marley CBD skin care, Docklight’s portfolio of Marley CBD products spans several zones at convenience retail, which helps to reinforce the availability of CBD in the store. These high quality CBD products are packaged in displayable cases at low price points for easy trial for first-time CBD customers.
