Share of shelf

The part of a category's shelf space that a brand occupies, measured in facings or shelf length.

Why it matters

Comparing share of shelf with market share shows whether a brand gets the space its sales deserve.

How to calculate

Brand facings (or shelf length) ÷ total category facings (or shelf length) × 100.
