Yes, it’s called a slotting fee.

Clasic economics would say therefore the lower profit margin + slotting fee should equal the higher margin of the house brands.

I wonder if that's roughly true? I could imagine both yes and no. Classic economics, sort of by definition, can't take real world edge effects into account.
