Portfolio reading
Coverage is the first question
Only 2 products passed the catalog's display-quality filter even though 2 records carry this brand label. That mismatch is the main finding: the roll-up is too dependent on sparse or noisy upstream names for a confident brand-wide conclusion. The readable evidence is Gorditas and Gorditas De Chicharron. Verify a current package rather than extending this average beyond those records.
