Proof of Usefulness Score
You're In Business

While Holland & Barrett is a verified major retailer with significant historical traction and utility, this submission is of extremely low quality. It lacks specific technical details, provides vague evidence ('most people'), and mistakes basic financial metrics (listing market cap as revenue). As a result, the score reflects the poor quality of the project submission rather than the scale of the business itself.
