Bobo's at Target
Target is a discount independent running 6 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Bobo's is a snack brand specializing in wholesome oat-based products, including oat bars, bites, and PB&Js.
Bobo's isn’t on Target’s shelf yet in any of its 6 stores. The opening: 4 categories where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.
Lead with Oat Bites, Stuff'd, Peanut Butter & Jelly in Snack Bites.
Target stocks snack bites thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 5 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is snack bites: Target stocks only 3 there, so Bobo's Oat Bites, Stuff'd, Peanut Butter & Jelly stands out rather than blending in.

What to bring to land
Bobo's’ SKUs Target doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
Presence and depth are measured from Target’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. Target profile →
