DishMark

Pricing intelligence

The spread of prices for a comparable dish across a defined set of establishments, and how that spread moves.

Are we high or low here, and by how much?

A national average is the wrong number for a pricing decision. What matters is the distribution in the catchment the site actually trades in: the lowest, the typical, the upper quartile, and how wide the gap is between them.

DishMark reports all of it, with one comparable price per establishment so a venue listing six portion sizes cannot outweigh one listing a dish once. Outliers beyond one and a half times the interquartile range are flagged and kept, because a forty-pound fish and chips is usually a sharing platter and you need to see it to judge.

Because every figure carries its source and its date, a price you take to a pricing meeting can be checked in the meeting.
