Market Insights Snapshot
Starting with the positive, Hedy has shown a consistent upward trend in the Edible category within the Colorado market. The brand managed to improve its ranking from 11th place in August 2023 to 8th place by November 2023. This is a clear indication of Hedy's growing popularity and acceptance in this market. However, the brand's performance in the Illinois market is a bit stagnant, maintaining a position outside the top 20, specifically in the 34-35 range over the same period. This could suggest a need for increased marketing efforts or product innovation in this region.
On a less positive note, Hedy's performance in the Massachusetts market has been on a downward trend, with its ranking falling from 59th to 71st place between August and November 2023. This decline could be a cause for concern and might require some strategic adjustments. In the Maryland market, Hedy has been able to maintain a steady position within the top 20, specifically at the 22nd rank over the same period. However, the brand's performance in the Missouri market is not very encouraging, as it failed to rank in the top 20 in the last two months of the period under review. This suggests that there is significant room for improvement in this market.
