Panel-wide demand chooses what to check. It does not prove a local shelf issue.

Four rules before we publish a shelf reading.

01

Outlet evidence

Photo or receipt tied to an outlet key.

02

Independent support

Verified evidence or several shoppers agreeing.

03

No double count

One current reading per outlet and reporting cell.

04

Minimum base

No rate below the required outlet floor.

An empty shelf sends the sale elsewhere.

A till records what won, not the gap that caused the switch.
