Tide's top 10 neighbors span beverages, home goods, food, and discount retail — a broad consumer-staples mix with no single category dominating and scores compressed into a narrow band from 0.93 to 0.95.
The shape is flat: Welch's (0.95) and Febreze (0.95) sit at the top, separated by less than 0.001, followed closely by I Love Gain (0.95), Tropicana (0.94), and Downy (0.94). Tallying the subcategories across all 10 neighbors: Home brands appear three times (Febreze, I Love Gain, Downy), Beverages twice (Welch's, Tropicana), and the remaining five slots go to Home again (Family Dollar), Grocery and Superstores (Dollar Tree), Beverages (The Coca-Cola Co.), Home (Secret Deodorant), and Sweets (OREO Cookie). Home-subcategory brands are the plurality at four of ten, but the set is genuinely mixed — beverages, discount retail, and a confection all register at comparable scores. The spread from first to tenth is only 0.022, meaning no neighbor pulls meaningfully ahead of the pack. This is a mass-market consumer-goods audience that overlaps equally well with laundry competitors, juice brands, and dollar-store shoppers.
The flat, tightly clustered shape reflects an audience defined less by any single product category than by broad everyday-purchase behavior.
