Expanded integration brings verified wellness and functional attribute data into RangeMe, enabling faster, more confident product discovery for retail buyers.

NielsenIQ (NYSE:NIQ), a global leader in consumer intelligence, today announced an expanded integration between NIQ Brandbank and RangeMe, a leading online platform that streamlines new product discovery and sourcing between suppliers and retailers. The integration supports retailers in discovering emerging products, wellness‑forward attributes, and fast‑growing functional trends. The enhancement brings expanded verified product data into the RangeMe platform, helping retail buyers identify innovation with greater speed and clarity.

As shoppers increasingly look for foods, beverages, and everyday products that deliver benefits beyond basic nutrition, retailers are under pressure to quickly pinpoint items that meet very specific consumer needs. Verified attribute data has become central to that process. The growth in shoppers searching for functional products underscores the importance of high‑quality, enriched product information that supports accurate discovery and confident decision‑making.

With this latest expansion, RangeMe now surfaces a broader set of wellness and functional attributes powered by NIQ Brandbank's validated data. Through it, retail buyers can:

Filter for high interest segments, including High‑Protein, Probiotics & Prebiotics, No Added Sugar / Low Sugar, and GLP‑1 Friendly
Search for additional qualified and stated claims
Better identify brands aligned to rapidly evolving shopper priorities

"This integration strengthens the tools retailers rely on to understand where consumer demand is heading," said Josh Walker, VP NA Brands, NIQ Brandbank. "By powering discovery with high‑quality, validated attribute data, we're helping retailers stay ahead of emerging trends and giving brands the visibility they deserve."

The launch builds on NIQ's broader strategy to bring standardized, accurate product attributes and forward‑looking insight together in one workflow. By combining NIQ Brandbank data with NIQ Product Insights (NPI), retailers gain earlier signals of rising ingredient demand, wellness trends, and whitespace opportunities enabling faster, more confident assortment decisions based on both verified product content and real‑time market behavior.

"Our goal is to give retail buyers the clearest possible view of what's new, what's trending, and what's gaining traction with consumers," said Wayne Bennett, SVP Retail at RangeMe. "Expanding our attribute‑powered discovery capabilities with NIQ Brandbank—and enriching them with NIQ Product Insights—means the most innovative, high‑value products rise to the top. Retailers can move with greater speed, and brands can better showcase their strengths."
