THE ULTIMATE CPG DICTIONARY

Gross-to-Net Sales

The difference between gross sales and the net revenue realized after discounts, promotions, and trade spend are deducted.

How it's Calculated:

Gross Sales – Trade Promotions – Discounts – Returns = Net Sales.

Example:

A beverage company has $10M in gross sales but $2M in trade promotions and discounts, resulting in $8M net sales.
