Back To Nature at Whole Foods Market
Whole Foods Market is a natural independent running 10 Bay Area stores, large-format at about 30,160 sq ft each, indexing high on established names versus other Bay Area grocers.
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 9 SKUs across 4 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen, replicated across all 10 stores.
Lead with Peanut Butter Creme Sandwich Cookies in Packaged Cookies.
Whole Foods 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 9 other Bay Area grocers.

Already on the shelf
Presence and depth are measured from Whole Foods 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. Whole Foods Market profile →
