Market Insights Snapshot
In Alberta, Versus demonstrated a notable upward trend in the Flower category, climbing from the 26th position in December 2024 to 15th in February 2025, before settling at 16th in March 2025. This positive movement is indicative of a strong market presence and growing consumer preference. However, the brand's performance in the Pre-Roll category, despite improving from 61st to 40th over the same period, still remains outside the top 30, highlighting potential areas for growth. In the Vapor Pens category, Versus maintained a steady presence, moving slightly from 30th to 25th, signaling consistent consumer demand.
In Ontario, Versus held a strong position in the Beverage category, consistently ranking 2nd from December 2024 through March 2025, underscoring its dominance in this segment. The Flower category also saw a notable improvement, where Versus rose from 14th to 11th, indicating a strengthening market foothold. Conversely, the brand's absence from the top 30 in the Concentrates category after December suggests a decline in consumer interest or competitive pressures. Meanwhile, in Saskatchewan, Versus experienced a drop in the Flower category rankings from 5th in December to falling out of the top 30 by March, which may call for strategic reassessment in this market.
Competitive Landscape
In the competitive landscape of the Flower category in Ontario, Versus has demonstrated a notable upward trend in rankings from December 2024 to March 2025. Starting at 14th place in December, Versus improved to 11th by March, indicating a positive trajectory in market presence. This rise in rank is particularly significant when compared to competitors like Big Bag O' Buds and The Loud Plug, both of which experienced fluctuations and a general decline in their rankings during the same period.
