Market Insights Snapshot
Western Cannabis has shown varied performance across different categories and regions, with notable distinctions between the provinces of Alberta and Saskatchewan. In Alberta, the brand has maintained a consistent presence in the Concentrates category, holding a steady 10th position from August to October 2024. This stability is coupled with a positive sales trajectory, as evidenced by a rise from $81,568 in August to $95,100 in October. However, the Flower category tells a different story, where the brand did not make it into the top 30 in September and October, indicating a potential area for improvement. Meanwhile, in the Pre-Roll category, Western Cannabis has shown upward momentum, climbing from 50th in July to 36th by October, suggesting strategic gains in this segment.
In Saskatchewan, Western Cannabis has demonstrated significant growth in the Concentrates category, moving from being unranked in July to an impressive 2nd place by October. This upward trend in Saskatchewan highlights the brand's strengthening market position in this category. The Flower category, however, saw a decline from 9th in August to 16th in October, suggesting potential challenges in maintaining its earlier momentum. The Vapor Pens category also presents an interesting dynamic, as Western Cannabis entered the top 30 in September at 35th and quickly ascended to 15th by October, indicating a rapid increase in consumer preference or market penetration. These movements reflect a mixed but promising landscape for Western Cannabis across different product categories and provincial markets.
Competitive Landscape
In the competitive landscape of the Pre-Roll category in Alberta, Western Cannabis has demonstrated a notable upward trajectory in its market position over the past few months. Starting from a rank of 50 in July 2024, Western Cannabis has climbed steadily to reach the 36th position by October 2024.

Meanwhile, Common Ground has seen a decline in rank from 32 in September to 37 in October, suggesting potential challenges in maintaining its market share. OHJA also saw a drop in rank to 39 in October, possibly due to a decrease in sales.
