· KRGV (NBC 5)
Recent legal battles over Texas's ban on smokeable hemp products have created significant uncertainty for retailers. Stores like Dream Planet Smoke and Vape have had to repeatedly pull products from shelves and then restock them as court rulings fluctuate. This instability is impacting sales and leading to job losses, as smokeable hemp accounts for a large portion of profits for many shops. The Texas Hemp Business Council warns that the ongoing legal issues could have a $7.2 billion negative impact on the state's economy. Retailers are now diversifying their offerings to include hemp edibles and drinks to mitigate losses.
