Best Permanent Markers Brands on Amazon US — Top 3 Brand Sales Concentration (July 2026)
Sharpie is the best-performing permanent markers brand in July 2026, moving 280,000 units across 6 ASINs for 70.0% of Top 10 volume. ARTISTRO follows with 60,000 units (15.0%), ahead of EXPO on 40,000 units (10.0%).
With 4 brands splitting the Top 10 and 95.0% of volume sitting with three of them, this is a concentrated shelf — the leaders hold multiple listings or one very high-velocity ASIN, so a new entrant competes against established review moats rather than an open field. Average selling prices among the leaders run from $4.47 to $9.99, which frames the price band a competing listing has to justify.

Trending Permanent Markers Products — Growth Leaders & New Top 10 Entrants
Based on July 2026 data, this shortlist surfaces the two kinds of ASIN worth keeping an eye on — the ones that just broke into the Top 10, and the ones growing fastest month over month. Specifically, one ASIN forced its way in: B000N35G5S booked 40K units at $4.47, with ▲ 300.0% MoM change. On the growth side, B019QBPDSM leads positive momentum with ▲ 300.0% MoM growth on 4K units, with B00L3Y27N0 close behind at ▲ 250.0% MoM on 7K units.
The two signals carry different weight. A fresh entrant means share has already changed hands — an incumbent gave up its place to make room, so any competitive set drawn up a month ago is now out of date. A steep growth rate works as the earlier warning: it marks demand that is still compounding, usually a month or two before the ranking catches up to it.
