Chomps at Target
Target is a discount independent running 6 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Chomps is a brand specializing in high-protein, low-sugar meat snacks made from grass-fed beef, venison, and antibiotic-free poultry.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 2 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen, replicated across all 6 stores.
Lead with Grass-Fed Original Beef Stick in Meat Jerky.
Target stocks meat jerky thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 9 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is meat jerky: Target stocks only 10 there, so Chomps Grass-Fed Original Beef Stick stands out rather than blending in.
Target merchandises 1 of the 2 categories the brand sells.

The full runway · across 6 stores
Every category Chomps plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Target. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.
On shelf here, but only 2 of 31 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
The store barely carries this category, so it is a hard sell.
What to bring to expand

Already on the shelf
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 →
