Why a big number here is not a market-share claim

  1. 01

    Names are grouped exactly as written. One group can appear under several legal entities, so a household name may sit lower than a single-entity filer.

  2. 02

    Not every edge is ownership. A packaging declarant or an EU registrant may be a manufacturer, licensee or importer. Each brand keeps its own label.

  3. 03

    Counts follow our sources, not the market. A company with many small filed brands outranks one with a few very large ones, because this counts records rather than sales.
