Sources and methods

This site, tillandtrolley, aggregates its news reporting from a wide selection of published industry feeds and curated indexes of news publications. These sources focus exclusively on our editorial spine: the retail channel and the chain competitors operating within it. Every article we process originates from a credited, external publication. We employ automated systems to assist in summarising and rewriting these stories, ensuring the core information is presented in a clear, consistent format while always maintaining attribution to the original publisher.

When a factual claim or piece of data appears in only a single source publication, it is clearly flagged within our summary. This allows readers to note that the information has not been corroborated by other industry reporting at the time of publication. Our approach prioritises facts that are widely reported and verified across multiple outlets.

The reference pages on tillandtrolley, such as those for a Retailer, Channel, or Market, are constructed differently from the news summaries. These pages are built from stable, verified facts assembled into a structured data table. Each reference page focuses on objective information, such as a company's operational details or a market's defining characteristics, and is paired with a single, credited photograph. These pages are designed as static reference points.

Both our news coverage and reference pages are subject to scheduled refreshes. News summaries are updated continuously as new information is aggregated from our source feeds. The factual reference pages are reviewed and updated on a regular cycle to incorporate new, verified data, ensuring they remain accurate and relevant. The site's focus remains on the Asia market across all sections, from Channels and Retailers to Regulation and Policy.
