Market Insights Snapshot
Exotic Elevations has shown varied performance across different product categories and states. In the Maryland market, the brand's performance in the Concentrates category has been relatively stable, with a slight improvement in rank from 16th in October 2025 to 13th in December 2025. However, January 2026 saw a drop to 17th, indicating some fluctuations in market dynamics or consumer preferences. This movement suggests that while Exotic Elevations is a recognized player, there may be competitive pressures or shifts in consumer demand affecting their standing.
In the Vapor Pens category within Maryland, Exotic Elevations did not consistently rank within the top 30, as evidenced by their absence from the top 30 in October 2025 and December 2025. This inconsistency highlights potential challenges in maintaining a strong presence in this category. However, the brand did see a resurgence in January 2026, moving up to 32nd place, which could indicate strategic adjustments or product innovations that resonated with consumers. This dynamic landscape suggests that while Exotic Elevations faces challenges, there are opportunities for growth and repositioning in the Vapor Pens category.
Competitive Landscape
In the Maryland vapor pens category, Exotic Elevations has experienced notable fluctuations in its competitive positioning over recent months. Despite a dip in December 2025, where it fell out of the top 35, the brand rebounded in January 2026 to rank 32nd, indicating a positive recovery trajectory. This improvement is crucial as it competes with brands like Beboe, which consistently improved its rank from 39th in October 2025 to 31st by January 2026, and Flower by Edie Parker, which saw a decline but maintained a higher rank than Exotic Elevations. Meanwhile, Nature's Heritage experienced a downward trend, dropping to 36th, which could present an opportunity for Exotic Elevations to surpass it if current trends continue. However, Cheetah remains a strong competitor, despite a significant drop in January 2026, maintaining a higher sales volume than Exotic Elevations. These dynamics suggest that while Exotic Elevations is on an upward trend, strategic efforts are necessary to capitalize on the weaknesses of competitors and enhance its market position.
