Category Criteria: Judges will take into account the following factors:

Category Display
Products should be grouped firstly by format eg impulse, sharing bags, blocks and gifting and then particularly within impulse confectionery by need-state: snack, hunger, pleasure, play, everyday treats, fruit refreshment, mint refreshment. The display should be not be merchandised simply by manufacturer.

Merchandising In Store

The display should be fully-faced with products uniformly facing forwards.
Product availability should be 100%.
Space should be allocated according to product performance.
Best-selling products should be doublefaced.
The sales ratio for the singles category is two thirds chocolate confectionery to one third sugar (fruits, mints & gums) - displays should reflect this. In terms of sharing bags equal space should be given to chocolate and sugar.

Products, Promotions & POS
Retailers should capitalise on new products and promotions:


by displaying products prominently off shelf using temporary POS.
displays should also be adjusted to reflect current TV or media advertising campaigns.

 Retailers should capitalise on impulse sales by placing permanent POS strategically in store.
