Methodology
- Brand shelf presence uses the selected market radius and the current store-brand rollup from observed menus.
- Retailer targets are stores in the market that do not show the selected brand but do show comparable category activity.
- Comparable brand reads are directional category and shelf-share signals, not verified wholesale sales data.
- Recommendations are account planning prompts; confirm menu freshness and retail relationships before outreach.
- PDF output is generated from the stored report snapshot so the report remains reproducible.
