King City Gardens

In May 2026, King City Gardens concentrated 73.78% of sales in Flower, where sales fell 10.01% year over year and 15.45% month over month, while Vapor Pens at 9.85% share declined 33.08% year over year and 15.98% month over month. Countering those drops, Pre-Roll rose 14.28% month over month to 11.91% share, and Concentrates, though only 4.01% share, posted a 4,478.03% year-over-year surge even as month-over-month slipped 13.62%. Edible contracted to 0.45% share with a 74.24% year-over-year and 36.15% month-over-month decline, and the brand’s average price fell 31.22% year over year to $25.28, indicating mix and pricing shifts are redistributing volume toward lower-priced formats while Flower remains the anchor. With Flower ranked 14 in Ohio, the pattern implies over-reliance on a weakening core and an emerging but volatile secondary focus in Pre-Roll and Concentrates.

The combination of a 1.46% brand-level year-over-year sales lift alongside a 31.22% year-over-year price drop and a 15.45% month-over-month decline in Flower signals that unit growth is being maintained by discounting and by channeling demand into Pre-Roll, which grew 14.28% month over month, while Vapor Pens erosion of 33.08% year over year constrains premium mix. Concentrates’ 4,478.03% year-over-year growth from a low base and a 13.62% month-over-month pullback point to experimentation rather than stable adoption, whereas Edible’s 74.24% year-over-year contraction and 36.15% month-over-month drop indicate deliberate deprioritization. Given a 14th-place Flower rank in Ohio and a category mix still three-quarters Flower, the implication is a near-term need to defend Flower while scaling Pre-Roll as the volume hedge and using Concentrates selectively to test premium headroom without further diluting average price.
