When three Bacardi brands appear on one menu, that's not coincidence - it's a portfolio deal. We detect bundling signals that no other intelligence platform can see.
Your field rep visits a bar. Nice venue, right category, good fit. The pitch goes nowhere. Why? Because the venue already has a portfolio deal with your competitor's parent company. Three brands from the same group = exclusive supply agreement. Your rep just wasted a morning on a door that was locked from the inside.
No intelligence platform flags this. CGA doesn't track multi-brand co-occurrence. SharpGrid doesn't infer portfolio relationships. We do.
| Venue | Brands detected | Signal |
|---|---|---|
| Bar Botanique | Tanqueray, Don Julio, Baileys | Deal likely |
| Cafe Luxembourg | Hendrick's only | Open |
| De Ysbreeker | Bombay, Bacardi, Patron | Deal locked |
| Waterkant | Tanqueray, Bobby's | Mixed |
Venues showing 3+ brands from the same parent company. These require strategic plays - displacement battles, not cold pitches.
Independent venues with no detectable portfolio deal. Day-one targets for your field team. Maximum conversion probability.
Venues with brands from multiple suppliers. The deal may be partial or expired. Worth investigating - some slots may be open.
"Which accounts are locked by competitor deals? Where should I invest my time vs move on?"
"Market-level view: what % of premium venues are deal-locked? Is the competitive landscape tightening?"
"Split territory into winnable vs strategic. Route reps to open venues first, deal-locked venues for relationship building."
