The strongest pull in Spec's Wine, Spirits & Finer Foods' top 10 is Frost Bank at 0.77 — a regional bank, not another liquor retailer or grocery chain. No other entity in the Alcoholic Beverages subcategory appears anywhere in the top 10.
The shape here is broad: scores descend gradually from 0.77 down to 0.57, with no sharp drop-off and no single dominant cluster. After Frost Bank, the next closest neighbors are H-E-B (0.73) and H-E-B Pharmacy (0.71) — both Texas-market staples, one a general grocery store and one a pharmacy. That trio alone spans three different subcategories. The remaining seven positions fill in with Taco Cabana (0.67, Casual Dining), Timewise Food Store (0.65, Gas Stations), Golden Chick (0.63, Casual Dining), Rooms To Go: Kids (0.58, Furniture Stores), Prosperity Bank (0.58, Banks), Taco Bueno (0.57, QSR), and Fred Meyer Jewelers (0.57, Jewelry and Accessories). Subcategory-wise, the top 10 spans banks, general grocery, pharmacies, casual dining, gas stations, furniture, QSR, and jewelry — eight distinct subcategories across six different parent categories.
The cross-kind breadth here is the defining structural fact: Spec's audience shape most closely resembles a Texas-regional consumer footprint — banks, convenience, casual dining, everyday retail — rather than anything specific to wine, spirits, or specialty food.
