A TOEHOLD IN SUPERMARKETS

Store brands have made their mark in only a handful of candy categories in supermarkets. Scanning data assembled by Nielsen North America, however, shows some gains in dollar volume for private-label candy in the 52 weeks ended March 12, 1994. And in the fragmented nonchocolate candy arena, private label ranks second in dollar and unit volume, behind Brach's.
