Market Insights Snapshot
In the Concentrates category, Apothecary Botanicals showed a steady performance in Alberta, maintaining its rank in the mid-40s from September to December 2023. However, the brand did not make it to the top 20 in this category, suggesting room for growth. A similar trend was observed in British Columbia, with the brand's ranking slightly declining from 48 in September to 52 in December. Despite this, sales in Alberta showed an upward trend, indicating a positive market response.
On the other hand, Apothecary Botanicals performed well in the Topicals category in British Columbia, consistently ranking within the top 20 throughout the last quarter of 2023. In contrast, the brand's performance in the Oil category in Ontario was stable, maintaining a rank around the 30s. Interestingly, the brand's ranking in the Topicals category in Ontario was not available after September, suggesting that it might have fallen out of the top 20. Despite these variations across categories and states, Apothecary Botanicals continues to be a player to watch in the cannabis market.
Competitive Landscape
