Blue Diamond at United Markets
United Markets is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, large-format at about 26,260 sq ft each.
Blue Diamond is a prominent brand specializing in almond-based products, including snacks, almond milk, and gluten-free crackers.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 26 SKUs across 2 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 2 new doors to enter.
Lead with Whole Natural Almonds in Almonds.
United Markets stocks almonds thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 3 other Bay Area grocers.
United Markets carries crackers in real depth, 224 SKUs against a fleet median of 85, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
United Markets merchandises 4 of the 4 categories the brand sells.

Presence and depth are measured from United Markets’ 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. United Markets profile →
