Hong Kong welcomes Asia’s first CBD cafe, Found Launched in July by Australian cannabidiol supplier Altum, the chic space may look like a regular cafe in the hipster neighbourhood of Sheung Wan in Hong Kong, but it actually aims to educate and support customers who want to find out more about cannabidiol (CBD) products.  “We realised that there was a need for a physical space because there’s so much stigma attached to cannabis. Our customers need to talk to somebody in person to feel more comfortable about the substance,” explained Altum co-founder Fiachra Mullen.  “So that’s why we started Found, it’s a place for people to discover or rediscover the benefits of cannabinoids and ask questions in a safe space without judgment.”
