Market Insights Snapshot
Illicit / Illicit Gardens has demonstrated a varied performance across different categories and states. In Missouri, the brand has maintained a strong presence in the Edible category, consistently holding the 8th position from December 2024 through March 2025. This stability contrasts with their performance in the Concentrates category, where they were not in the top 30 in December 2024 but achieved the 11th rank by January 2025, only to drop to 14th by February, with no ranking data for March. Such fluctuations indicate a dynamic market presence that could be influenced by various factors including product innovation or market competition. Meanwhile, in the Vapor Pens category, Illicit / Illicit Gardens showed significant upward momentum, climbing from 15th in December 2024 to a commendable 3rd place by March 2025.
In New Jersey, Illicit / Illicit Gardens experienced more challenges, particularly in the Flower category where they slipped from 17th in December 2024 to 25th by March 2025. This downward trend suggests possible competitive pressures or shifting consumer preferences. The brand's presence in the Pre-Roll category was not recorded in December 2024, but they entered the rankings at 15th in January 2025, indicating a potential entry strategy or product launch that gained initial traction. However, their performance in the Vapor Pens category remained relatively stable, albeit at lower ranks, fluctuating slightly between 18th and 21st over the same period. This suggests a need for strategic adjustments to improve market positioning and capture a larger share in the New Jersey market.
Competitive Landscape
In the Missouri flower category, Illicit / Illicit Gardens has experienced some fluctuations in its competitive standing, maintaining a strong presence despite facing stiff competition. From December 2024 to March 2025, Illicit / Illicit Gardens consistently ranked within the top five brands, although it saw a slight dip from third to fourth position in February 2025. This change in rank was primarily due to the rising performance of Amaze Cannabis, which climbed from fifth to third place by March 2025, showcasing a notable increase in sales. Meanwhile, CODES maintained its second-place position with consistently high sales figures, indicating a robust market presence. Despite these shifts, Illicit / Illicit Gardens has managed to retain a competitive edge, although the brand may need to strategize to counter the upward momentum of its competitors like Vivid (MO), which, despite a drop in rank, showed resilience in sales recovery by March 2025.
