Market Insights Snapshot
In the Ontario market, Kiss has shown a consistent presence in the beverage category, maintaining a position within the top 30 brands. Despite some fluctuation, Kiss ranked 26th in January 2025, dropped slightly to 27th in February, and then to 28th in March, before climbing back to 27th in April. This movement suggests a stable performance with a slight upward trend towards the end of the period. Interestingly, April saw a notable increase in sales, indicating potential growth or a successful marketing strategy during that month.
While Kiss has sustained its presence in the top 30 rankings in Ontario, the absence of a ranking in other states or provinces implies that Kiss is either still establishing its footprint or facing stiff competition in those areas. The ability to remain in the top 30 consistently in Ontario could be viewed as a positive indicator of brand strength in that region. However, the lack of visibility in other markets might suggest opportunities for expansion or the need for strategic adjustments to penetrate those markets effectively.
Competitive Landscape
In the competitive landscape of the beverage category in Ontario, Kiss has demonstrated a relatively stable position, maintaining a rank within the top 30 throughout the first four months of 2025. Despite a slight dip in February, Kiss improved its rank to 27th by April, indicating a positive trend in sales performance. In contrast, Vacay experienced a notable decline, dropping from 16th in January to 29th in April, which may suggest a potential opportunity for Kiss to capture some of Vacay's market share. Meanwhile, Sense & Purpose Beverages showed a more consistent performance, hovering around the mid-20s, and Zele remained close in rank to Kiss, indicating a competitive peer group. The absence of Ace Valley in the top 20 during this period further highlights the dynamic shifts in consumer preferences, presenting Kiss with an opportunity to strengthen its market position by capitalizing on these fluctuations.
Notable Products
In April 2025, the top-performing product from Kiss was the Mango Shot 10mg THC 30ml in the Beverage category, maintaining its first-place ranking from previous months with sales reaching 3726 units.

The THC Kiss Guava Shot 10mg THC 30ml retained its third-place ranking in the Beverage category, with sales slightly increasing to 811 units after a dip in March. Notably, the Double Chocolate Chip Biscuit 10mg in the Edible category remained in fourth place, having only been introduced in March. Dragons Kiss Shot 10mg, previously ranked fourth and fifth in January and February, did not feature in the top rankings for April.
