Both the other answers accomplish what you want     You can use the pivot functionality to arrange the data in a nice table  df groupby   Fruit   Name   as index   False  sum   pivot  Fruit   Name   fillna 0     Name    Bob     Mike    Steve   Tom    Tony Fruit                    Apples  16 0    9 0     10 0    0 0     0 0 Grapes  35 0    0 0     0 0     87 0    15 0 Oranges 67 0    57 0    0 0     15 0    1 0

Use GroupBy sum   df groupby   Fruit   Name    sum    Out 31                   Number Fruit   Name          Apples  Bob        16         Mike        9         Steve      10 Grapes  Bob        35         Tom        87         Tony       15 Oranges Bob        67         Mike       57         Tom        15         Tony        1

You can set the groupby column to  index  then using sum with level   df set index   Fruit   Name    sum level  0 1   Out 175                   Number Fruit   Name          Apples  Bob        16         Mike        9         Steve      10 Oranges Bob        67         Tom        15         Mike       57         Tony        1 Grapes  Bob        35         Tom        87         Tony       15

If you want to keep the original columns Fruit and Name  use reset index    Otherwise Fruit and Name will become part of the index    df groupby   Fruit   Name     Number   sum   reset index    Fruit   Name       Number Apples  Bob        16 Apples  Mike        9 Apples  Steve      10 Grapes  Bob        35 Grapes  Tom        87 Grapes  Tony       15 Oranges Bob        67 Oranges Mike       57 Oranges Tom        15 Oranges Tony        1   As seen in the other answers   df groupby   Fruit   Name     Number   sum                   Number Fruit   Name          Apples  Bob        16         Mike        9         Steve      10 Grapes  Bob        35         Tom        87         Tony       15 Oranges Bob        67         Mike       57         Tom        15         Tony        1
