Bus/Financial - Marketing / Market Research / Dieting
French term or phrase: Secteur HM/SM
In my document it is just one item in a list, with no other context except a reference to "Weight Watchers" as a diet plan. I've trawled the web extensively but haven't worked out what this could be.
Also, as they are 2-character acronyms, most reference databases, including proz, do not permit searching for them.
So I'm stuck!
As always, any help would be greatly appreciated :-)

I agree with philgoddard, don't know why you said 'manager', but otherwise I feel stupid for having asked the question -- I hadn't realized it's possible to search for 2-character acronyms in the alternate prozcom I would have found it and not asked !

agree  philgoddard: I don't see how "secteur" becomes "manager", but otherwise I agree this is a possibility. // I still don't understand the context, but if you Google this it clearly means hypermarket/supermarket sector.
