GRIPS CUSTOMERS & RESEARCH PARTNERS
Grips Intelligence in-store data covering January 1 through July 31, 2026 shows Cantex — a privately held brand whose ultimate parent, Mitsubishi Corporation, trades in Tokyo (TYO: 8058) — drawing the bulk of its tracked revenue from Lowe's, at 76.2% share, with Ace Hardware accounting for the remaining 23.6%. That two-retailer concentration leaves the brand heavily exposed to shelf decisions at a single account. Momentum softened over the May–July window, with revenue down 7.7% month over month and 5.0% across the period. Pricing moved in the opposite direction, with the average price reaching $5.21 in the latest month, up 0.2% sequentially and 5.9% over the quarter, against a year-to-date average of $4.87. The combination suggests unit softness is being partly offset by higher realized prices rather than volume growth.
