Reading the shelf…
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
Alden’s Organic: Alden's Organic is a leading brand in the organic ice cream and frozen treats category, known for its commitment to using organic ingredients since its inception in 2004.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 19 SKUs across 2 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 2 new doors to enter, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Frozen Dessert Bar, Greek Yogurt, Vanilla Berry Twist in Frozen Yogurt.
Pacific Market stocks frozen yogurt thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 2 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is frozen yogurt: Pacific Market stocks only 11 there, so Alden’s Organic Frozen Dessert Bar, Greek Yogurt, Vanilla Berry Twist stands out rather than blending in.
Pacific Market merchandises 4 of the 4 categories the brand sells.

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 →
