Market Insights Snapshot
Kingpen has shown a strong performance in the California market, particularly in the Pre-Roll category. The brand has consistently maintained the number 3 ranking from June through September 2025, indicating a stable and robust presence in this segment. This consistent ranking is bolstered by a positive sales trajectory, with a noticeable peak in August before a slight decline in September. However, in the Vapor Pens category, Kingpen's performance has been less impressive, with rankings hovering around 35th and 36th place over the same period. This indicates a potential area for growth or strategic adjustment, as they have not broken into the top 30 in this category.
While Kingpen's performance in the Pre-Roll category in California remains impressive, the brand's inability to secure a top 30 position in the Vapor Pens category suggests a need for innovation or marketing efforts to boost their standing. The stability in Pre-Rolls might suggest a loyal customer base or effective product offerings, but the disparity between categories highlights an opportunity for Kingpen to diversify or enhance its portfolio. The brand's consistent sales in Pre-Rolls could be leveraged to explore other states or categories where they currently do not have a strong presence, potentially replicating their success in California.
Competitive Landscape
In the competitive landscape of the California pre-roll market, Kingpen consistently holds a strong position, maintaining its rank at 3rd place from June to September 2025. This stability in rank reflects Kingpen's robust market presence and consumer loyalty, despite fierce competition. Notably, Jeeter and STIIIZY dominate the top two positions, with Jeeter leading the market. Kingpen's sales figures show a positive trend, with a noticeable increase from June to August, peaking in August before a slight decline in September. This upward trajectory in sales, despite the unchanged rank, suggests that Kingpen is successfully expanding its market share. Meanwhile, Presidential and CannaBiotix (CBX) trail behind, with CannaBiotix showing a promising rise in rank from 7th to 5th in September, indicating potential future competition for Kingpen.
