Market Insights Snapshot
Kingpen concentrated 69.42% of October 2026 sales in Pre-Roll, where sales declined 24.31% year over year and 7.32% month over month, while Vapor Pens at 15.55% share fell 4.01% YoY and 7.42% MoM, indicating simultaneous contraction in its two legacy pillars. Offsetting that, Flower expanded to 10.56% share with a 4.13% MoM increase and a re-entry YoY surge, and Concentrates, though only 2.89% share, grew 19.44% MoM and 982.55% YoY, with Edible at 1.58% share rising 12.17% YoY but dropping 16.20% MoM. With an average price up 0.23% YoY to $19.27 and Pre-Roll ranking at position 5 in California, the mix suggests a pivot underway from a Pre-Roll-heavy base toward a broader portfolio where newer or revived categories are gaining incremental weight; the pattern implies Kingpen is absorbing a category-specific downswing by leaning into higher-velocity adjacencies.
The accelerating MoM gains in Concentrates (+19.44%) and Flower (+4.13%) against concurrent MoM pullbacks in Pre-Roll (−7.32%) and Vapor Pens (−7.42%) imply Kingpen is repositioning toward categories where small share bases can deliver outsized contribution growth without price cuts, as evidenced by a stable-to-higher average price (+0.23% YoY). Maintaining Pre-Roll rank 5 in California while Pre-Roll’s YoY sales drop 24.31% indicates the brand’s competitive foothold is intact even as the category softens, so reallocating shelf focus toward Flower (10.56% share) and scaling Concentrates (2.89% share) can buffer the brand-level YoY decline of 8.76% and progressively reduce dependence on any single category.
Competitive Landscape
Kingpen sits at rank #5 in CA Pre-Roll in October 2026, down two positions from its peak rank #3 reached in August 2026 but two spots lower than its year-ago rank #3, while the three-month comparison also marks a two-rank slide from #3 to #5. The competitive bar moved upward as Jeeter held #1 year over year (rank #1 to #1) with sales up 30.5%, and Presidential advanced from #5 to #4 with 30.9% YoY growth, directly edging past Kingpen from the prior #3 cohort to today’s #5. With STIIIZY steady at #2 year over year and Sluggers Hit improving from #4 to #3, the net effect is that Kingpen’s relative position has compressed two ranks over the year and two ranks over the last three months, implying that maintaining share now requires outpacing competitors’ double-digit growth rather than recovering a transient August peak.
Notable Products
Kingpen is concentrated in one format in October 2026, with Connoisseur / Infused Pre-Rolls accounting for 69.4% of sales, while Specialty / Infused Flower adds 10.5%. The top 10 items deliver 27.5% of revenue and are led by Kingroll Jr - Cannalope Ak x Cannalope Kush Infused Pre-Roll 4-Pack (3g) at 5.7%, so most of its sales come from infused pre-rolls rather than other formats.

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.
