Most legit concentrate producers here in Canada have something to prove & pricing is all over the place when selling B2B
What prices are bulk THC concentrates going for in Canadian LP to LP Markets ?
Concentrates such as:
Shatter
Badder
Live Vape
Distillate Vape
D9 Distillate
HTE
Diamonds & Sauce
Straight Diamonds
I know this is a loaded question for several reasons and some folks may choose not to participate however it benefits everyone to know your not getting ripped off, the legal market in Canada is not very stable and it is difficult to understand the fair market value in the LP scene.
@Lincoln20XX shared some pricing in his https://future4200.com/t/industrial-scale-extraction-canadian-investment-opportunity/ thread and I would like to expand on this to get a taste for the pricing scale, I plan on entering the market soon & wondering where to place the value on my own extracts that make them affordable for the people using the drugs that I make.
Cheers

I’m just a consumer in Canada and all I know is that by the time that reaches me in the retail store it’s about $100/g.
I can’t buy legal concentrates with that kind of pricing with my consumption habits, lol.

Me either and I make them lol
I agree with you that It’s ridiculous, Pricing needs to come in line with what the average customer can afford without dropping quality

Also, I’m droolin over that video. Looks tasty!
I’m afraid I don’t play much on the THC side of things these days, so the information I provided is pretty close to all I have available.
I do know that one of our direct competitors is charging something in the $11.50/unit range for filled 1g vape carts at wholesale on serious volume. Which means if you’re moving them at $30 retail you’re losing money after excise etc.

The Canadian cannabis exchange - CCE or CCX, depending on who you talk to - is one place that LPs go to wave their big swinging prices around. If you’re licensed you should have no problem getting an account set up there.

The regulations have most producers confused on post harvest care and handling of flower so the quality of input material is average. But cost effective. Being able to make quality products out of the input material and positioning your brand as a value brand would prove viable.

Change the Canadian dollar to euro and you have a decent indication of European prices
Carts filled and packed are even cheaper at 7-8€ a piece
Ps I do not join this price dropping contest

I am trying to elevate the prices, with current prices, the market is stupidly competitive and unviable. Any company which is not lean enough is getting the market down by liquidating product at these dirt cheap prices. Distillate guys have switched over to ISO completely from Ethanol.

Why would they switch from Eth to iso??

Iso picks up less undesirables at the point of extraction: less fats waxes and lipids making winterization easier
I used to run iso to extract
Methanol to winterize

Wouldn’t that make it harder to get 90% plus to if you ain’t getting all the fat and wades out ???
It would.
Except the statement was that it doesn’t pick them up in the first place.
Which would make it easier.

There is also chatter that Health Canada is going to ban the use of ethanol (super unlikely) or denatured ethanol (much more likely) in extraction.
Getting an excise exemption license is non-trivial, and requires a lot of up front and ongoing paperwork, and most operators don’t want to bother.
