A Japanese person said that to me and I was utterly lost. I tried to dissect
the sentence:

これ = this  
から = from  
も = also  
よろしく = (Honestly, I don't know what this means)  
ね = a suffix that women use

I think this might mean "Nice to meet you, too." But I would like to know a
more accurate explanation from someone with actual knowledge.

question
grammar conversations
What does これからもよろしくね mean?
This whole utterance is basically a set phrase.

これから is a compound word meaning "after this" for "from now on."

Are you familiar with the phrase よろしくおねがいします? It has a variety of meanings,
including "I look forward to working with you" and "thanks in advance," but
also more generally just, "Great to meet you, looking forward to seeing you
again." In casual speech, you can shorten it to just よろしく.

ね is not by a long shot exclusively used in feminine speech. It's a _discourse
marker_ that means approximately "We're on the same page about what I'm
saying, right?"

So all together:

> これからもよろしくね。

Could be translated to, depending on the context, "Thanks for your continued
support," "Glad we'll be working together," "Let's stay in touch." It has a
professional but friendly tone.

answer
これ = this  
から = from  
これから = from this point onward  
よろしく comes from よろしい ＝ good, acceptance  
よろしく in this case is the shortened form of よろしくおねがいします  
おねがいします being the polite/formal way of saying ください = please  
ね = expectation of agreement, understanding, acceptance.

これからもよろしくね = From this point forward I hope we can get along well.

or more naturally:  
- Looking forward to working with you.  
- It was good to meet you (and I expect that we will continue to have a good working relationship in the future).  
- @mamster is right, depending on context there are a plethora of innocuous business related expressions of cooperation that would fit a given situation.
