1st Phorm at Pacific Market
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 1 new door to enter, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Salted Peanut Butter Whole Food Protein Bar in Protein Bars.
Pacific Market stocks protein bars thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 1 other Bay Area grocer.
The more differentiated opening is protein bars: Pacific Market stocks only 6 there, so 1st Phorm Salted Peanut Butter Whole Food Protein Bar stands out rather than blending in.
Pacific Market merchandises 3 of the 3 categories the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 70/100.
enters a thin protein bars shelf as a point of difference.
The full runway · across 2 stores
Every category 1st Phorm plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Pacific Market. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.
On shelf here, but only 1 of 2 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.

Already on the shelf
Presence and depth are measured from Pacific Market’s current Bay Area storefront: its online catalog plus our shelf photos, a partial view. A widely-distributed brand shown as a new door may already be carried through channels we don’t index. Pacific Market profile →
