How our categories work
Each brand sits in one category based on what its customers buy at the outlet โ a tea cafรฉ is Food & Beverage, a tea-powder brand appointing distributors is FMCG & Product Distribution. Inside a category, sub-categories name the lead product (tea, pizza, salons, preschoolsโฆ).
How you partner with the brand โ franchise, dealership, distributorship or agency โ is a filter, not a category, because the same product is often sold through several models.
How to pick the right category
- Passion & expertise: choose a category you understand; domain knowledge gives you an edge.
- Local demand: a food outlet may thrive in a commercial area while an education centre works better near homes.
- Investment range: capital needs differ widely by brand and format โ compare the published figures on each listing, and each category's benchmarks from brands whose terms we checked.
- Competition: a less crowded category in your city can matter more than a popular one.
