Bona Furtuna at Berkeley Bowl
Berkeley Bowl is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Bona Furtuna offers a curated selection of artisanal Italian products that highlight the rich culinary traditions of Sicily.
Bona Furtuna isn’t on Berkeley Bowl’s shelf yet in any of its 2 stores. The opening: 7 categories where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.

Berkeley Bowl stocks pesto 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.
Berkeley Bowl carries olive oils in real depth, 152 SKUs against a fleet median of 31, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
