Community Market CA is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Baba Small Batch is a brand specializing in Mediterranean-inspired dips, spreads, and snacks, crafted with a focus on quality and simplicity.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 3 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen.
