Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Brooklyn Cured is a brand specializing in small-batch charcuterie and sausages, known for its innovative flavors and commitment to using sustainably raised, antibiotic-free meats.
Brooklyn Cured isn’t on Fairfax Market’s shelf yet. The opening: 5 categories where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.
Lead with Bresaola and Truffle Gouda Snack Pack in Gouda.
Fairfax Market stocks gouda thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 1 other Bay Area grocer.
The more differentiated opening is gouda: Fairfax Market stocks only 4 there, so Brooklyn Cured Bresaola and Truffle Gouda Snack Pack stands out rather than blending in.
Fairfax Market merchandises 6 of the 7 categories the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 65/100.
enters a thin gouda shelf as a point of difference.

The store barely carries this category, so it is a hard sell.
