C-Metrics

C-Metrics is an additional service outside of the InfoMetrics Program. C-Metrics data is built from InfoMetrics® distributors and national distributor partners’ shipments to retail. C-Metrics provides critical performance measurements at:

  • Total US and five regional levels
  • Manufacturer, brand family and SKU across all NACS categories
  • Projected store dollar sales, units shipped and percent distribution
  • Weekly updates

C-Metrics is the only projected convenience store database, delivering actionable insights into retail performance trends based on 30k - 32k sample stores.
