Reading the shelf…
Target is a discount independent running 6 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Cocojune is a New York-based brand that specializes in organic, plant-based dairy alternatives, including yogurt, dips, and sour cream.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 2 SKUs across 2 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 1 new door to enter, replicated across all 6 stores.
Lead with Lemon Dill Yogurt Dip in Tzatziki.
Target stocks tzatziki 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.
Target carries greek & icelandic yogurt in real depth, 94 SKUs against a fleet median of 36, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf. The more differentiated opening is tzatziki: Target stocks only 1 there, so cocojune Lemon Dill Yogurt Dip stands out rather than blending in. Lead with the tzatziki, and position the greek & icelandic yogurt as a finishing or gift item.
Target merchandises 4 of the 5 categories the brand sells.
non-gmo, organic, vegan against the store's assortment lean.

enters a thin tzatziki shelf as a point of difference.

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 →
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
The store barely carries this category, so it is a hard sell.
