Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Califia Farms is a Los Angeles-based company specializing in plant-based dairy alternatives, including almond and oat milks, creamers, and ready-to-drink coffees.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 10 SKUs across 4 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 4 categories to widen and 5 new doors to enter.
Lead with Organic Oat Milk in Oat Milk.
Fairfax Market stocks oat milk thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 10 other Bay Area grocers.
Fairfax Market carries fruit juice & blends in real depth, 85 SKUs against a fleet median of 39, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
Fairfax Market merchandises 10 of the 13 categories the brand sells.
non-gmo, organic, vegan against the store's assortment lean.

Presence and depth are measured from Fairfax 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. Fairfax Market profile →
