Reading the shelf…
Target is a discount independent running 6 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Ellenos is a premium Greek yogurt brand celebrated for its rich, creamy texture and handcrafted flavors.
Ellenos isn’t on Target’s shelf yet in any of its 6 stores. The opening: 1 category where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.
Lead with Lemon Curd, Greek Yogurt in Greek & Icelandic Yogurt.
Target stocks greek & icelandic yogurt 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.
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.
Target merchandises 1 of the 1 category the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 75/100.
the categories it plays in are already deep here.
Every category Ellenos 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.
Not here yet, but the shelf is real: a clean first door into a category the brand runs deep in.
Where it would price in greek & icelandic yogurt. Each dot is a product on the shelf, by its cost per oz (hover for which). Ellenos (orange) sits well above the shelf.
Ellenos’ 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 →
