Market Insights Snapshot
Pheotera Grove has shown a noteworthy performance in the Topical category in Illinois. In July 2025, the brand made an impressive entry into the top 30, securing the fifth position. This ranking was maintained in September 2025, indicating a consistent demand for their products. However, it's important to note that Pheotera Grove was not present in the top 30 in June and August, which suggests some volatility in their market presence. This fluctuation could be attributed to various factors such as seasonal demand or competitive dynamics within the state.
Interestingly, Pheotera Grove's sales figures in Illinois reflect a slight decline from July to September despite holding the same rank in both months. This suggests that while they maintained their position, the overall market or consumer spending might have contracted. The absence of rankings in June and August further emphasizes the competitive challenges or strategic shifts the brand may have faced. Observing these trends could provide valuable insights into Pheotera Grove's market strategies and consumer preferences in the Topical category across different timeframes.
Competitive Landscape
In the Illinois topical cannabis market, Pheotera Grove has shown a fluctuating presence, ranking 5th in both July and September 2025, with a noticeable absence from the top 20 in June and August. This inconsistency in rank suggests potential volatility in their market position. In contrast, Doctor Solomon's has maintained a steady 2nd place ranking throughout the same period, indicating strong brand stability and consumer loyalty. Meanwhile, Nature's Grace and Wellness was ranked 3rd in June but did not appear in the top 20 in subsequent months, which could imply a decline in market presence. Alchemy (Ieso) entered the rankings in August and September at 4th place, suggesting a potential upward trend. Pheotera Grove's sales figures, while lower than Doctor Solomon's, show a slight decline from July to September, which may necessitate strategic adjustments to enhance competitiveness and capture a larger market share.

Notable Products
