Reading the shelf…
Target is a discount independent running 6 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Earthbound Farm is a prominent American producer of organic salads, fruits, and vegetables, founded in 1984 in Carmel Valley, California.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 5 new doors to enter, replicated across all 6 stores.
Lead with Organic Broccoli Florets in Green Broccoli.
Target stocks green broccoli 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 green broccoli: Target stocks only 2 there, so Earthbound Farm Organic Broccoli Florets stands out rather than blending in.
Target merchandises 20 of the 27 categories the brand sells.
non-gmo, organic against the store's assortment lean.

enters a thin green broccoli shelf as a point of difference.
Every category Earthbound Farm 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 1 of 2 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
Earthbound Farm’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 →
