The brief, in three moves

What we built and why.

Problem

Where we started

Ten-year-old UK CBD manufacturer with their own Cambridgeshire facility, in-house small-batch production, full lab traceability, and a 4.9-star average across 5,000+ Trustpilot reviews. The category has been swamped since 2018 by drop-ship CBD vendors selling the same wholesale oil with different labels. Love CBD's actual differentiation — being one of the few real manufacturers in the UK market with their own facility and ten years of proprietary formulations — was buried behind a category-default storefront.

Phase 01 of 03
Approach

What we built

Figma-led redesign anchored on the credibility stack — "Est 2014", "4.9 / 5 across 5,000+ Trustpilot reviews", "Made in our Cambridgeshire facility". Each product range (Entourage, Dutch, Gold oil lines, capsules, balms, vapes, hemp tea, patches) given proper editorial treatment with the formulation story, dosage guidance, and lab-test PDF on every PDP. Sample-pack flow ("Samples Available" on hero) lowers the trial barrier — a £6 sample beats a £40 cold purchase. Loyalty Points program surfaced. Built on WordPress + WooCommerce for editorial flexibility and the deep customisation the brand wanted.

Phase 02 of 03
Result

What changed

Manufacturer credibility surfaced · 7 product ranges with editorial treatment · sample-pack flow live · 5,000+ reviews on hero

Phase 03 of 03

A ten-year UK CBD manufacturer finally has a site that separates them from the drop-ship vendors flooding the category.

01 / 04

The brief

Love CBD has been manufacturing CBD oils, capsules, balms, vapes, and hemp tea in their own Cambridgeshire facility since 2014 — back when CBD was a fringe category in the UK and nobody had built up the trust signals yet. They built those signals: 5,000+ Trustpilot reviews at 4.9 stars, full lab traceability, proprietary formulations. Then the category got swamped after 2018 by drop-shippers selling the same wholesale oil. Their old site didn't separate the two.

02 / 04

Foregrounding the credibility stack

In Figma we built the brand identity around the credibility numbers that actually matter to a UK CBD buyer: "Est 2014", "5,000+ reviews", "4.9 / 5 stars", "Made in our Cambridgeshire facility". Each got a place on the homepage where it can't be missed. Drop-ship vendors can't fake "ten years in business" or "we make this ourselves" — that gap is the brand's competitive moat.

03 / 04

Sample-pack flow

CBD trial cost matters enormously in this category — a £40 oil bottle is too much of a leap for a curious buyer. We elevated the £6 sample-pack flow to the hero. Buyer commits to £6, gets a labelled selection from across the product range, comes back two weeks later as a returning customer. Conversion path designed around the actual psychology of CBD trial, not around the wishful thinking of the e-commerce template.

04 / 04

The numbers

Seven product ranges live with full editorial treatment. Sample-pack flow on the hero. 5,000+ Trustpilot reviews surfaced as a homepage trust band. Loyalty Points program running. The Cambridgeshire facility — the actual differentiator — front and centre.
