Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Back to Nature is a U.S.-based snack brand that specializes in plant-based, non-GMO products, including a variety of cookies, crackers, granola, nuts, and trail mixes.
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.
Lead with Fudge Mint Cookies in Packaged Cookies.
Fairfax Market stocks packaged cookies thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 8 other Bay Area grocers.
Fairfax Market merchandises 3 of the 5 categories the brand sells.

Presence and depth are measured from Fairfax 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. Fairfax Market profile →
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.
