Market Insights Snapshot
Tru Smoke has shown a notable performance in the Michigan concentrates category over the summer months. Starting from a rank of 22 in May, the brand experienced a slight dip in June and July, holding steady at rank 26, before making a significant leap to rank 20 in August. This upward movement coincides with a substantial increase in sales from July to August, suggesting a potential boost in consumer preference or successful marketing strategies. However, the brand's absence from the top 30 in other states or provinces in the concentrates category might indicate room for growth or challenges in expanding its market presence beyond Michigan.
In the flower category, Tru Smoke's performance in Michigan has been particularly impressive. The brand climbed from rank 67 in May to rank 34 in August, marking a significant improvement in its market position. This rise in rank is accompanied by a notable increase in sales, particularly from July to August, suggesting a strong demand for their flower products. The fact that Tru Smoke did not appear in the top 30 rankings in any other state or province for the flower category highlights a concentrated success in Michigan, which could be a strategic focus for the brand or a reflection of regional consumer preferences.
