Mgp Ingredients Inc is shown in red; its closest peers by combined growth, margin and ROIC are labeled. See Methodology: Strategic Group Map for how this chart is built.
Mgp Ingredients Inc's trailing-12-month revenue growth of -15.9% and operating margin of -57.3% compares with an average of -0.2% growth and 4.5% margin across its 8 closest peers by combined growth, margin and ROIC -- Mgp Ingredients Inc sits below that peer average on growth and below it on margin.

Mgp Ingredients Inc's BCG Growth-Share Matrix
See Methodology: BCG Growth-Share Matrix for how relative share and growth are calculated and thresholded.
Mgp Ingredients Inc falls in the Dog quadrant: relative market share of 0.00x vs its largest competitor, in an industry growing revenue -3.5% (median, trailing 12 months).
Source: CSIMarket API (market-cap share and industry revenue growth). The 10% growth and 1.0x share lines are standard textbook thresholds, not derived from this industry's own distribution. A caveat worth reading alongside this chart: Anheuser busch Inbev Sa alone holds 91% of this industry's market cap. In an industry this dominated by one leader, the framework will place nearly every OTHER company in "Dog" or "Question Mark" purely because relative share is measured against that leader, regardless of how strong those other companies actually are on their own fundamentals. Check the Profitability, Valuation and Financial Strength sections above before treating this quadrant label as a verdict.
