Abe's at Berkeley Bowl
Berkeley Bowl is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Abe's is a brand specializing in vegan and allergy-friendly baked goods, offering a variety of muffins, cupcakes, brownies, and cakes.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 10 SKUs across 2 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 3 new doors to enter, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Mini Brownies, Vegan in Brownies.
Berkeley Bowl stocks brownies 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.
Berkeley Bowl carries muffins in real depth, 43 SKUs against a fleet median of 9.5, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
Berkeley Bowl merchandises 5 of the 8 categories the brand sells.
