Market Insights Snapshot
In the state of California, Time Machine has shown varying performances across different product categories. In the Flower category, the brand has been gradually climbing the ranks, moving from 59th place in June to 53rd by September 2025, indicating a positive trend despite not breaking into the top 30. This upward movement coincides with a steady increase in sales, suggesting growing consumer interest or improved distribution strategies. On the other hand, the Vapor Pens category tells a different story, where Time Machine was ranked 82nd in June and did not feature in the top 30 in subsequent months, indicating a potential area for improvement or increased competition in this segment.
The Pre-Roll category in California has been a stronghold for Time Machine, maintaining a consistent position at 11th place in June and July, and slightly dropping to 12th in August and September. This stability in ranking, despite a slight decline in sales from July to September, reflects a sustained consumer preference or effective brand loyalty strategies. However, the absence of Time Machine in the top 30 in other categories could suggest a need to diversify or enhance their product offerings to capture a broader market share. These insights highlight both the strengths and potential growth areas for Time Machine in the competitive California cannabis market.
