From Dishes to Products — How Pork Performs - Pork Checkoff

From Dishes to Products — How Pork Performs

Webinar 3 of 5

In this session, we shift from dishes and occasions to products — examining how pork products behave in consumers’ lives and how those behaviors differ across contexts, channels and competitive sets.

This session is divided into two key sections

1. Products: How Pork Competes and Performs

Participants will explore how pork products organize and compete across the broader protein landscape, including:

  • Periodic Tables of Products: A structured view of pork product forms and formats
  • Comparative Analysis: How product families perform across the five major “meats,” highlighting iSpace Champions and product standouts by iSpace
  • Foodservice Lens: Examples of unique franchises and chains that demonstrate differentiated execution and product strategy


2. Mathematical Clustering of Pork Products

We then move into advanced behavioral clustering to reveal how pork products are grouped based on real consumer behavior rather than traditional definitions. This includes:

  • Mathematical Behavioral Clusters: Names, descriptions and defining characteristics
  • Key Behaviors and iSpaces: The roles each cluster plays and where it wins with consumers
  • Linguistic Profiles: The language, cues and messaging traits associated with each cluster
  • Raison d’Être: The strategic purpose of each meat cluster and what it signals for innovation and growth
