Market Insights Snapshot
The Botanist has demonstrated notable performance across several states, particularly in the Illinois market. In Illinois, the brand has seen a consistent upward trend in the Flower category, moving from the 26th rank in September 2024 to the 19th rank by December 2024, reflecting a positive trajectory. The Pre-Roll category also showed improvement, maintaining the 14th position in both November and December, indicating a stable presence in the market. Conversely, the Edible category in Illinois did not break into the top 30, which could suggest a need for strategic adjustments in this segment. Meanwhile, the Vapor Pens category experienced a decline in ranking, dropping from 13th in November to 16th in December, which might warrant attention despite a strong start earlier in the year.
In Massachusetts, The Botanist's performance in the Flower category fluctuated, with rankings moving from 47th in September to 45th by December, showing some recovery after a dip in the preceding months. However, the Pre-Roll category faced challenges, as it did not appear in the top rankings for November and December, indicating potential areas for growth or repositioning. In New York, the brand maintained a relatively strong presence in the Flower category, improving its rank from 29th in October to 22nd in December, suggesting positive reception and growth potential. Meanwhile, in Ohio, The Botanist entered the Flower category rankings in December at 37th, which could be seen as a foothold for further expansion, while their Vapor Pens held steady around the mid-20s, indicating consistent consumer interest.

Starting from a rank of 26 in September 2024, The Botanist climbed to the 19th position by December 2024, indicating a positive trend in market presence and consumer preference.
