The top 10 neighbors for Wegmans Food Markets span breweries, sports journalists, pet retail, and fast-casual dining — with no other general grocery store appearing in the set. Similarity here measures how closely two entities' audiences resemble each other in composition; a score near 0.80 indicates a very tight match.
The shape is flat: the top 10 scores run from Great Lakes Brewing Co. at 0.80 down to Tim Kurkjian at 0.77, a narrow band with no single dominant neighbor. The two closest entries are Great Lakes Brewing Co. (0.80) and Pet Supplies Plus (0.80), followed by Handel's Home Made Ice Cream (0.77) and Kenny Mayne (0.77). The subcategory breakdown across the top 10 is notably cross-kind: three are Celebrities and Influencers (two TV Personalities, one Journalist), two are Breweries, one is Pet Supplies and Services, one is Bakeries Desserts and Confectioneries, one is Fast Casual Dining, one is Miscellaneous, and one is Athletes. Not one neighbor shares Wegmans' own subcategory of General Grocery Stores.
The dominant thread running through the mix is regional, sports-adjacent, and food-and-drink-oriented — breweries like Great Lakes Brewing Co. and Bell's Brewery (0.76) sit alongside sports media figures like Tim Kurkjian and Trevor Bauer (0.76), with local food brands like Jet's Pizza (0.77) rounding out the cluster. The absence of any direct grocery competitor in the top 10 suggests Wegmans' audience is shaped less by the grocery category broadly and more by a specific regional and lifestyle profile that cuts across food, sports media, and specialty retail.
