Green Roads Pharmacists Team Green Roads Pharmacists Team

Stamped on almost every Green Roads product are two words we take very seriously: Pharmacist Formulated. For us, it’s more than a slogan, it’s at the center of who we are. Green Roads’ co-founder and Chief Science & Innovation Officer, Laura Fuentes, spent more than two decades as a licensed compounding pharmacist before starting Green Roads. While other CBD brands were chasing a fad, she was creating unique formulations that would go on to define Green Roads and catapult the company to the top of the industry.

Today, she is joined by two other full-time pharmacists who create our custom formulas and oversee our manufacturing. Their dedication to quality and customer care has made Green Roads the gold standard of the CBD industry.

Meet Laura Fuentes, RPH

Laura Fuentes is the co-founder and Chief Science & Innovation Officer of Green Roads, one of the largest and most respected manufacturers of CBD products in the country. She is also the creator of its proprietary formulation and the visionary behind many of its products.

Laura’s personal and professional commitment to helping people improve their health through plant-based remedies has driven Green Roads to lead the industry in product quality and consumer transparency. Under her leadership, the company was one of the first to require independent lab testing on every product batch and one of the first to make every lab report easily available to consumers. For Laura, Green Roads is more than a company --it’s an opportunity to have a positive impact on millions of lives and help people on their journey to better health.

Prior to founding Green Roads, Laura built a 25-year career as a licensed compounding pharmacist. She’s a former board member of the Broward County Pharmacy Association, and volunteers with various charitable organizations, including the Autism Speaks Walk, Multiple Sclerosis Views and News, the Rheumatoid Arthritis Foundation, the American Cancer Society, and more. Laura holds a BS in pharmacy from Nova Southeastern University.
