Competitive Landscape
In the California Pre-Roll category, Lime has shown a promising upward trend from August to November 2023. It started at rank 15 in August and climbed to rank 10 by November, surpassing competitors like Time Machine which fell from rank 16 to 12 in the same period. However, Lime still trails behind other competitors like Caviar Gold, Kingpen (formerly 710 Kingpen), and Claybourne Co. who have maintained their positions within the top 12 ranks throughout these months. In terms of sales, Lime has seen a steady increase, suggesting a growing customer base and market share, but it's worth noting that its sales are still lower than these competitors.
