French term or phrase: NPD
A newsletter on the recent launch (in France) of a new perfume refers to NPD as follows:

"x % de parts de marché Province à l'issue de la seconde semaine de résultats NPD soit un record jamais atteint dans les P&C jusque là"

I'm not at all familiar with this acronym, and having looked and looked I've come up with nothing relevant in French, and "New Production Development"in English, which I guess could make sense, but I'm not at all sure that it would be used in this way, i.e. "new production development figures" = figures for a newly developed product?? My research doesn't seem to be getting me anywhere, so I'm hoping someone else is familiar with it!

Thanks in advance for your help!

Notes to answerer
Asker: I think this might well be it, Liz. I did see references to the NPD Group, but they all seemed to be connected to video games stuff, so I assumed they were a video games producer or some such thing...luckily you've got a much better research-head on!
