Reading the shelf…
Falletti Foods is a conventional independent running 1 Bay Area store, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
ALOHA is a brand specializing in plant-based protein snacks and beverages. Their products include protein bars, powders, and drinks, all crafted with simple, organic ingredients.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 2 SKUs across 2 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 1 new door to enter.

Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
The store barely carries this category, so it is a hard sell.
