Market Insights Snapshot
In August 2026, Cosmic Extracts concentrated its mix heavily into Concentrates at 97.49% share with year-over-year growth of 387.70% and month-over-month growth of 84.51%, while Vapor Pens held 1.27% share with a -98.47% year-over-year drop but a 158.85% month-over-month rebound. Pre-Roll accounted for 1.24% share with -60.16% year-over-year and -70.99% month-over-month declines, and the average price rose 28.32% year over year to $37.88. With Concentrates ranked 7th in Saskatchewan and the top category contributing nearly all sales, the mix implies a deliberate pivot toward high-price Concentrates even as brand sales fell 5.83% year over year.
The sharp tilt toward Concentrates at 97.49% share alongside an 84.51% month-over-month rise suggests reliance on a single growth engine to offset declines of -98.47% year over year in Vapor Pens and -70.99% month over month in Pre-Roll. Holding the 7th rank in Concentrates in Saskatchewan while average price increased 28.32% year over year indicates a premiumization strategy that could trade volume for mix quality; the risk is category concentration if Vapor Pens’ 158.85% month-over-month bounce does not translate into share recovery from its 1.27% base.
Competitive Landscape
Cosmic Extracts sits at rank 7 in SK Concentrates in August 2026, improving 7 positions year over year from rank 14, and edging up 2 spots since May 2026 from rank 9, while still trailing its peak at rank 4 in December 2024; meanwhile, Western Cannabis rose from rank 4 to rank 1 with 130.4% YoY sales growth, and The Loud Plug advanced from rank 12 to rank 2 with 670.8% YoY growth, indicating Cosmic Extracts’ upward rank movement is positive but outpaced by faster-accelerating leaders, implying the brand’s trajectory points to mid-tier consolidation unless velocity or assortment shifts narrow the gap.
Notable Products
Bangerine Live Rosin Disposable (1g) posted the largest month-over-month surge at 158.6% in August 2026, moving to rank 4 while Grapefruit Live Rosin (1g) jumped 116.8% to rank 2. In contrast, Bubba Pink Rosin Infused Pre-Roll 3-Pack (1.5g) fell 13.6% to rank 3, indicating a split between inhalable formats as vapor and rosin-led items accelerated while pre-rolls softened.
Cereal Milk Live Rosin (1g) rose 83.5% to rank 1 and generated $52,320, setting the pace for concentrates while the top four included two Live Rosin SKUs, signaling a concentrated demand around solventless formats. With three of the top four positions occupied by rosin-based products across Concentrates and Vapor Pens, the mix points to a pivot toward higher-terpene, premium extraction offerings rather than pre-roll volume.

Data for this report comes from real-time sales reporting by participating cannabis retailers via their point-of-sale systems, which are linked up with Headset’s business intelligence software. Headset’s data is very reliable, as it comes digitally direct from our partner retailers. However, the potential does exist for misreporting in the instance of duplicates, incorrectly classified products, inaccurate entry of products into point-of-sale systems, or even simple human error at the point of purchase. Thus, there is a slight margin of error to consider. Brands listed on this page are ranked in the top twenty within the market and product category by total retail sales volume.
