French term or phrase: référencé
phrase: “le produit est bien referencé [en] SM et HM" - in this supermarket/hypermarket context I'm not even too sure of what the French means ! I doubt it's the 'recommended' as suggested in the glossary. Any ideas ?

widely stocked
Explanation:
as ever, more context would be a help, but it looks to me as if they're saying that lots of stores stock this product (référence=stock item/SKU).
