Market Insights Snapshot
In August 2026, Kusch derived 57.08% of brand sales from Vapor Pens and 42.92% from Pre-Roll, while overall brand sales were up 35.42% year over year alongside a 19.78% decline in average price to $26.13. Within the mix, Vapor Pens grew 10.63% YoY but fell 32.31% month over month, whereas Pre-Roll surged 92.90% YoY with a smaller 9.10% MoM decline, indicating that recent month-level volatility hit Vapor Pens harder. With Vapor Pens still the top category yet giving ground on a monthly basis, and Pre-Roll advancing faster on a YoY basis, the brand’s category split is tilting toward a more balanced portfolio that reduces single-category dependence.
The combination of a 36th rank in Vapor Pens in Missouri and a sharper MoM drop in Vapor Pens than in Pre-Roll suggests headroom to trade mix toward Pre-Roll where YoY gains are 82.27 percentage points higher than Vapor Pens and average price sits 44.77% below Vapor Pens. The brand-wide 19.78% price reduction paired with a 92.90% YoY lift in Pre-Roll and a 10.63% YoY gain in Vapor Pens implies price elasticity is stronger in value-accessible formats, so leaning into Pre-Roll while stabilizing Vapor Pen MoM trends can improve rank efficiency and smooth revenue seasonality.
Competitive Landscape
Kusch sits at rank #36 in MO Vapor Pens in August 2026, down 3 positions year over year from #33, and flat versus May 2026 at #36; despite a peak at #27 in July 2026, the brand reverted 9 ranks month over month, while category leaders moved up, as Illicit / Illicit Gardens climbed from #2 to #1 and Good Day Farm advanced from #7 to #3 alongside a 59.1% YoY sales gain. With competitors posting double-digit YoY growth—29.4% for Galactic and 45.5% for Pinpoint—Kusch’s 9-rank slide from July 2026 to August 2026 and 3-rank YoY decline signal share ceding in a consolidating top tier, implying that sustaining July 2026’s peak would require recapturing distribution or velocity lost to faster-rising rivals.
Notable Products
Legacy Series - Maui Wowie Distillate Cartridge (1g) posted the steepest movement in August 2026 with a -44.6% MoM slide while sitting at rank 8, whereas Mad Honey x Apple Tartz Pre-Roll 3-Pack (1.5g) rose 39.9% MoM to rank 1. Super Boof Pre-Roll 3-Pack (1.5g) in rank 2 grew 1.1% MoM and Gastro Pop Pre-Roll 3-Pack (1.5g) at rank 5 fell 7.1% MoM, and five of the top ten are Pre-Roll SKUs, indicating mix is tilting toward multi-pack Pre-Rolls even as a leading Vapor Pens title contracts. The gap between the rising top Pre-Roll and the declining Maui Wowie cartridge signals margin and inventory risk shifting from Vapor Pens to Pre-Rolls, implying Kusch’s near-term commercial direction favors value-driven Pre-Roll formats over single 1g carts despite one cartridge still generating $33,477.
