Meridian Foods Product Portfolio

Meridian Foods uses this sunburst chart to explain the shape of its product portfolio. The three divisions occupy the inner ring, and the named product lines occupy the outer ring. This makes it easy to see that a division can be important overall while still depending on a single line, such as salads or sauces. The chart is a starting point for portfolio discussion, not a substitute for margin, growth or customer data. In a real review, make clear whether the values represent gross sales, net revenue or another measure, and use a single fiscal period. Do not add every SKU to the outer ring. Aggregate to product lines first, then use a detailed table when a manager needs to investigate the components behind a category.
