Market Insights Snapshot
In September 2026, Sun Smoke’s category mix tilted toward Flower at 43.42% share with a 99.22% year-over-year gain but a 1.54% month-over-month decline, while Vapor Pens climbed to 39.98% share with a 230.39% year-over-year surge and a 33.21% month-over-month increase. Concentrates reached 14.45% share with 110.77% year-over-year growth and 5.79% month-over-month growth, as Pre-Roll held 2.15% share with an extreme 9,344.75% year-over-year jump but a 39.86% month-over-month drop. Given a rank of 57 in Flower in California and a 4.34% year-over-year decline in average price alongside a brand-level 145.26% sales increase, the data implies Sun Smoke is shifting volume toward faster-growing, lower-priced segments while accepting short-term Flower softness.
The acceleration in Vapor Pens and Concentrates share — up 33.21% month-over-month and 5.79% month-over-month respectively, against Flower’s 1.54% month-over-month dip — suggests Sun Smoke is repositioning toward higher-velocity inhalables where price points of $14.69 and $14.99 undercut the $28.39 in Flower. With Pre-Roll’s 2.15% share and 39.86% month-over-month contraction despite a 9,344.75% year-over-year spike, and an overall 4.34% lower average price coinciding with 145.26% year-over-year sales growth, the pattern implies a deliberate trade-down strategy that prioritizes share capture in mid-price formats over advancing the Flower rank of 57.
Competitive Landscape
Sun Smoke sits at rank #57 in California Flower in September 2026, improving 53 positions year over year from #110, and tightening 8 ranks since June 2026 to match its peak at #57 in September 2026; this upward shift contrasts with STIIIZY holding #1 after rising from #2 while expanding sales 47.8% year over year, and diverges from CannaBiotix (CBX) slipping from #1 to #3 alongside a 21.1% sales decline, indicating Sun Smoke is gaining relative position even as the top tier consolidates and rewards brands with accelerating distribution and velocity rather than sheer scale.

Notable Products
Gelato 41 Pre-Roll (1g) posted the steepest move in September 2026 with a -51.0% month-over-month drop at rank 9, while Garlic Octane Pre-Roll (1g) also fell -40.5% at rank 8, marking a sharp pullback in single-gram pre-rolls. In contrast, Berry Haze Distillate Cartridge (1g) rose +40.3% MoM to rank 2, and Hybrid Blend Preground (14g) advanced +29.0% MoM at rank 7, with Sativa Blend Preground (14g) up +3.5% at rank 5. Four of the top ten are Vapor Pens and three are Flower preground SKUs, while two Pre-Rolls slid double-digits, implying the mix is tilting toward inhalable formats that deliver higher velocity in carts and value-focused preground rather than single-stick pre-rolls. The pattern suggests Sun Smoke is concentrating volume in scalable pen and bulk flower lines, while deprioritizing low-ticket Pre-Rolls despite their prior shelf presence.

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.
