Market Insights Snapshot
In the Colorado market, Cosmos has shown consistent performance in the Flower and Pre-Roll categories, maintaining their position within the top 20 brands. In the Flower category, Cosmos has remained in the top 5 spots, shifting between 3rd and 5th place from July to October 2023. While the sales have seen a slight dip in September, the brand has managed to recover in October. The Pre-Roll category also paints a similar picture with the brand consistently ranking in the mid-teens, indicating steady demand for their products in this category.
However, when we look at the Vapor Pens category in Colorado and the Concentrates category in Washington, the brand seems to be struggling to maintain a top-ranking position. In Colorado, the brand's ranking in the Vapor Pens category has seen a significant drop from 55th place in August to 88th in October, indicating a decrease in popularity for their products in this category. Similarly, in Washington, Cosmos has slipped from 36th place in August to a staggering 86th in October in the Concentrates category. These movements suggest that the brand may need to revisit their strategies in these categories and markets.
