So which brand?

Breadth vs focus — and the right answer depends on the shelf.

We don’t crown a winner. Globally they may both be top-tier; locally, the category can flip the answer. Pick the brand that’s strong where you’re actually shopping — when a brand doesn’t compete in a category, we leave it blank rather than invent a rank.
