How the Categories work

By using our business intelligence services, our analysts measure metrics such as sales, availability, pricing, top searches and more, to work out the top products, vendors and distributors in each category.

In July, we will publish the first round of nominees in each Category, narrowing this down to our final Shortlist of the Top 5 nominees in September.

The users of Stock in the Channel will then have their chance to have their say by voting for their favourite shortlisted nominees. These votes will be added to the analytical data from Stock in the Channel to work out the winners in each category.
