Reading the shelf…
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
Best Foods is a renowned brand specializing in condiments, particularly mayonnaise, dressings, and spreads.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 6 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 1 new door to enter, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Mayonnaise Dressing With Olive Oil in Mayonnaise.
Pacific Market stocks mayonnaise thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 6 other Bay Area grocers.
Pacific Market carries mayonnaise in real depth, 34 SKUs against a fleet median of 15, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
Pacific Market merchandises 2 of the 2 categories the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 30/100.
the categories it plays in are already deep here.
Every category Best Foods plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Pacific Market. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.
On shelf here, but only 6 of 17 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
Where it would price in mayonnaise. Each dot is a product on the shelf, by its cost per fl oz (hover for which). Best Foods (orange) sits in line with the shelf.
Best Foods’ SKUs Pacific Market doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
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 →
