Reading the shelf…
Target is a discount independent running 6 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
David Protein offers a diverse range of protein bars designed to provide a flavorful and textured snacking experience.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 4 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 new door to enter, replicated across all 6 stores.
Target merchandises 3 of the 3 categories the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 70/100.
maps onto categories the store already runs.
Every category David Protein 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.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
Fully stocked here (4/4 SKUs).
David Protein’s SKUs Target doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
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 →
The store barely carries this category, so it is a hard sell.
