Top Brands & Companies by Category

Annual rankings based on TTB filing volume 29 years of data

These rankings are based on TTB Certificate of Label Approval (COLA) filing volume — the number of product labels each brand or company submitted for federal approval in a given year. Higher filing counts indicate a broader product portfolio, more frequent label updates, or active market expansion. For service providers looking to identify the most active players in each category, these rankings highlight who's investing the most in new products year over year.
