All the Industry Scoreboard data was organized into Excel spreadsheets, which I used for proofing, error correction, project tracking, data sorting, and analysis. These Excel files (along with many PDFs of data, articles, and more) were formatted and cleaned up by me and then sold as part of an Industry Scoreboard data package. This electronic product includes a vastly greater amount of data than we could ever fit in print, and Home Channel News sold the 100-plus PDF and Excel files as a package through sister company Chain Store Guide.
Here's the core spreadsheet of data I researched and compiled for the 2005 HCN Top 500. The original links to that work no longer exist, but the Wayback Machine captured related samples of it here, here, and here.
