• Measure customer perceptions and key preference drivers versus competitors; maintain a Brand Health Scorecard and Brand Strength Index and evaluate brand campaign impact.
• Monitor customer behavior, category trends, competitive positioning, pricing/promotions, messaging, economic conditions, population shifts, and digital/eCommerce capabilities; translate opportunities and threats into recommendations.

Trade Area & Local Market Analytics
