  1. I’m the manager of JustCBD company (justcbdstore.com) and I am currently trying to broaden my wholesale side of business. I am hoping someone at targetdomain share some guidance 🙂 I considered that the most ideal way to do this would be to talk to vape shops and cbd retail stores. I was really hoping if anybody at all could suggest a reputable site where I can buy CBD Shops Business Data I am currently examining creativebeartech.com, theeliquidboutique.co.uk and wowitloveithaveit.com. Not sure which one would be the very best solution and would appreciate any assistance on this. Or would it be easier for me to scrape my own leads? Ideas?
