As part of our exclusive data series for BevNET & Nosh Insiders, we’re partnering with Calebrate, an insights tool that shows CPG brands the best places to sell next, down to the store level, so they are not putting money into the wrong markets that will never pay off. Calebrate combines its own proprietary distribution dataset with demographic data and a range of other signals to point brands to the specific places they are most likely to gain traction. It gives them the insight to build highly localized strategies, grow momentum where it counts, and turn that into bigger opportunities.
