thread_title:  Merge proposal 

message: The specific question I had in mind when coming to this article was to see if there was information about the manufacturers of products sold as own brand / store brand.
For example, digestive biscuits - how many digestive biscuits factories are there? If each store had it's own biscuit factory it would be ridiculous - so most own brand products must presumably be made by the "national" manufacturers, eg McVities, sold under different terms - and different quality? Who knows? This article would be the place to put that information.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.20.152.179 (talk) 17:48, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
thread_title:  Extra information needed 

message: I propose that Store brand be merged into Private label. 
The content of this page is fairly poor, as mentioned above. Also, there are a number of trade bodies and publications which use Private Label, Store Brand, Own Label and more interchangeably.
As it stands this page is rather US focussed, and is not representative of a large market in Australia, the UK, Europe and Asia.
This page could, and in my opinion should be added as a section within the Private Label page, where a simple paragraph of information explains what Store Brands are, and gives some examples of how they work, both in the US and other countries. Some international figures would maybe help too, as the figures on this page are US based. Alexsapples (talk) 11:02, 15 January 2014 (UTC)

thread_title:  removal of references and content 

message: The article reads like someone's Marketing 1-01 term paper. What stands out for me is the wholly unsupported claim
:They bear a similarity to the concept of house brands, private label brands…, own brands…, and home brands… and generic brands. They are distinct in that a store brand is managed solely by the retailer for sale in only a specific chain of store.
There is no source offered; there is no rationale offered; there is no further explanation made. As house brand directs to store brand, the burden is on THIS article. If the claim cannot be supported, it should be deleted.Weeb Dingle (talk) 17:10, 27 December 2017 (UTC)
replies: text: It should just be merged to private label. They're the same thing, conceptually. It's strictly speaking, only a "store brand" when it's labeled with the store name, otherwise it's more properly (and broadly) a private label. That half the entries on the main example list of Richelieu Foods-produced products have alternate brands than the actually name of the chain, and that the exact same examples are at the private label article already indicates plainly that these articles are redundant. oknazevad (talk) 11:42, 22 December 2018 (UTC)
