Marketing
In the brand and product category you’ve chosen, go to two stores of different types and identify:
1. The brands of product offered as well as your brand – this will be your breadth/width
2. Within your brand, what varieties are offered at each store? This is your depth.
To do this you should likely take a photo.

Do the same thing
Compare and contrast. How are they similar/dissimilar. Any surprises to you? If one store has more depth and/or breadth, why do you think this is (one or two sentences)
For example:
Turkey Hill had quite a bit fewer varieties of Oreos than did Wegmans. There were also fewer lines of cookie brands at TH than Wegmans. I believe this is because of the difference in target markets. Wegmans is targeting people who are looking for choice, as well as a shopping experience, while Turkey Hill is targeting people who are looking for convenience and/or a quick snack
