What 3Chi does

3Chi (3CHI) is a privately held hemp-derived cannabinoid manufacturer and direct-to-consumer e-commerce company headquartered in Carmel, Indiana. Founded by Justin Journay, who serves as both CEO and Chief Scientist, the company operates a vertically integrated operation that begins with USA-grown hemp and applies proprietary cannabinoid conversion and isomerization technology to produce a broad portfolio of compounds including Delta 8 THC, Delta 9 THC, HHC, Delta 10, THCA, and rare cannabinoids (CBC, CBN, CBG, THCv, CBT). 3Chi positions itself as a pioneer and first federally legal Delta 8 retailer at the U.S. federal level.
