Before a retailer brings your product in, they expect three things from your pricing: • Clear margins • Defined promo support • Consistent shelf pricing If you’re not fully confident in all three, download the Pricing Strategy Worksheet. It walks you through it step-by-step. https://lnkd.in/g9hiBbkW #AlignSalesGroup #PriceStrategyWorksheet #FoodBroker

What Retailers Expect in Your Pricing If you’re selling into retail, your pricing can’t just look good, it has to be structured in a way retailers trust. Retailers want numbers that make sense, margins that work, and pricing that holds across all markets. If you’re not sure how to build that, we made a worksheet that does the math for you.

The first edition of the Align Convenience Store Market Index gave us a snapshot of the market. Now the real value begins. Q3 established the baseline at 51.8. Future editions will allow us to track movement across consumer demand, foodservice, better-for-you products, nicotine, channel access and margin pressure. We'll also continue incorporating what we're hearing directly from manufacturers, distributors and retailers across the industry. The next edition will look at what changed in Q4, what NACS told us about 2027 and where the market appears to be heading next. If you haven't read the inaugural report yet:https://lnkd.in/gBKvHEcE

51.8. That's the inaugural reading of the Align Convenience Store Market Index. But what does 51.8 actually mean? The Index uses a 0 to 100 scale, with 50 representing neutral market conditions for a CPG manufacturer trying to gain, maintain and grow convenience distribution. The Q3 reading tells us the market is mixed. Strong: Better-For-You Velocity: 78.6 Foodservice Momentum: 67.5 Under pressure: Consumer Demand & Traffic: 41.2 Channel Access: 38.4 Input Cost & Margin: 35.0 The strength in growth categories is currently enough to offset much of the pressure elsewhere in the channel. That's why simply looking at total convenience sales doesn't tell the whole story. Explore the methodology and full Q3 Index: https://lnkd.in/gBKvHEcE
