Market Insights Snapshot
Generic AF has shown notable performance improvements in the Vapor Pens category within Illinois. Starting from a rank of 30 in October 2024, the brand climbed steadily to reach the 19th position by January 2025. This upward trajectory suggests a growing consumer preference for their vapor products in this market. The brand's sales in this category also reflect positive momentum, with a significant jump between October and November 2024, although there was a slight dip in January 2025. The consistent climb in rankings indicates a strong foothold in the Illinois vapor pen market, which could signal potential for further growth if the trend continues.
In New York, Generic AF's performance across categories presents a mixed picture. In the Edible category, the brand maintained a presence in the top 20, despite a slight fluctuation in rankings from 14th to 17th between October 2024 and January 2025. However, the Flower category tells a different story, with the brand not making it into the top 30 for most of the period, except for a brief appearance in January 2025. The Pre-Roll category shows a similar challenge, as the brand only appeared in the rankings in January 2025 at the 94th position. This indicates that while Generic AF has a stable performance in edibles, it faces significant competition in other categories in New York, suggesting areas for strategic improvement.
Competitive Landscape
In the Illinois Vapor Pens category, Generic AF has shown a promising upward trajectory in its market rank from October 2024 to January 2025. Starting from a position outside the top 20 in October, Generic AF climbed to 19th place by January, indicating a significant improvement in market presence. This upward movement is noteworthy, especially when compared to competitors like High Supply / Supply, which dropped from 17th to 20th place in the same period, and Verano, which consistently remained outside the top 20. Meanwhile, Crystal Clear and Revolution Cannabis have maintained relatively stable positions, with Crystal Clear improving slightly from 20th to 17th. Generic AF's sales figures have also shown a positive trend, with a notable increase from November to December, although they slightly dipped in January, still maintaining a competitive edge over some peers. This data suggests that Generic AF is effectively capturing market share and could continue to rise if the current trends persist.
