The Wellness Experience opened Dec. 11 at 5100 W. Eldorado Parkway, Ste. 106, McKinney. The Black- and women-owned store sells various CBD products, including recovery, beauty and pet care essentials. Best sellers range from lotion to hemp honey to vape carts, according to the business's website.

Founding Partner Kendra Halliday said in a December news release that she wanted to take a step toward Black women connecting with one another on entrepreneurial ventures. Halliday owns The Wellness Experience along with Toniqua Green, Tabitha Harris, Dr. Samone Brown and Dr. Stacia Alexander.

“Our community deserves holistic options,” Halliday said in the release. “We are finding customers who feel that their wellness needs are often not met. It's about elevating our customers' mental, physical and social aspects." 972-850-8865. https://cbdwellness365.com
