Buying Rate

Definition

A measure of how frequently a product is purchased within a defined shopper base over a specific period. Buying rate reflects purchase intensity and is commonly used to assess repeat behavior and brand strength.

How It's Calculated

Example

A frozen pizza brand calculates a buying rate of 2.4 units per household per quarter, indicating that buyers typically purchase more than two units during the period.
