What is the NielsenIQ Brand Score?

NielsenIQ Brand Score is the most accurate assessment of CPG brands available anywhere. NielsenIQ Brand Score allows you to evaluate your brands’ performance at a high level. In one number, manufacturers, retailers, analysts or investors can see dozens of critical retail metrics distilled into an easily digestible number and letter score. 

Just like a Financial Credit Score helps an individual measure their overall financial health, NielsenIQ Brand Score helps you “grade” your brand based on four Function Scores: Promotion, Pricing, Assortment, and New Products. Each score is designed to give you an at-a-glance assessment of how your brand stacks up against competition within the category.
