Market Insights Snapshot
Care By Design’s mix in July 2026 concentrated 48.45% of sales in Tincture & Sublingual, where year-over-year fell 13.46% and month-over-month slipped 4.89%, while Vapor Pens rose to 36.23% share with a 35.69% YoY increase and a 20.83% MoM gain. Smaller lines were mixed: Capsules held 6.49% share with a 29.09% YoY decline but a 5.08% MoM lift, Topical represented 4.73% with a 4.94% YoY dip and 1.87% MoM uptick, and Edible at 4.11% surged 39.30% MoM despite a 3.40% YoY decline. With brand sales down 104.58% YoY against an 8.44% YoY average price decrease to $34.05, the pattern implies a pivot toward higher-velocity inhalables and opportunistic entry-level price points that is not yet offsetting contraction in the legacy Tincture & Sublingual base.
Positioning-wise, a 36.23% share now tied to Vapor Pens alongside a 4-rank position in California Tincture & Sublingual suggests a two-pillar strategy where inhalables drive near-term volume while Tincture & Sublingual defends credibility. The 20.83% MoM Vapor Pens growth and 39.30% MoM Edible spike, contrasted with a 4.89% MoM Tincture & Sublingual decline and 1.87% MoM Topical gain, indicate basket diversification toward faster-turn, accessible formats; the implication is to lean into cross-category conversion from Tincture & Sublingual to Vapor Pens and Edible to stabilize share while using the 8.44% YoY price reduction to widen trial without eroding the premium signals needed to maintain rank 4 in category.
Competitive Landscape
Care By Design is currently ranked #4 in California Tincture & Sublingual, down 1 position year over year from #3, and off 1 rank from April 2026’s #3, while still trailing its category peak of #1 from February 2025; meanwhile, Yummi Karma climbed from #2 year over year to #1 and expanded sales by 16.0%, and Papa & Barkley slipped from #1 to #2 with a 13.5% sales decline, indicating Care By Design’s drift from #3 to #4 amid a competitor rising and another retreating leaves it squeezed in the middle and implies a need to either recapture velocity to re-enter the top 3 or risk further share give-up as VET CBD holds #3 with a softer 1.3% sales dip.
Notable Products
CBD/THC 1:1 MAX Peppermint Full Spectrum Tincture (1000mg CBD, 1000mg THC, 15ml) posted a -14.4% month-over-month decline and still held rank 1, while the steepest positive mover failed to clear the +50% threshold as CBD/THC 1:1 Raspberry Gummies 20-Pack (100mg CBD, 100mg THC) rose +48.3% at rank 4. Vapor Pens concentrated four of the top ten and advanced broadly, with the CBD/THC 4:1 Medium THC Full Spectrum Cartridge (1g) up +26.4% at rank 2 and the CBD/THC 1:1 Higher THC Full Spectrum Cartridge (1g) up +41.1% at rank 5, indicating mix is tilting toward inhalables even as the lead tincture softens. Across tinctures, mixed signals emerged as the CBD/THC 40:1 Lower THC Tincture (960 CBD, 24mg THC, 30ml) gained +13.4% at rank 3 but the CBD/THC 40:1 Low THC Tincture (480mg CBD, 12mg THC, 15ml) edged just +2.8% at rank 9, implying that potency and format breadth, rather than a single hero SKU, will drive July 2026 assortment choices and merchandising focus.
