Elmhurst at Berkeley Bowl
Berkeley Bowl is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Elmhurst is a brand specializing in plant-based milk alternatives, offering a range of products made from nuts, grains, and seeds.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 14 SKUs across 6 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 1 new door to enter, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Barista Edition Pistachio Milk in Other Milk Alternatives.
Berkeley Bowl stocks other milk alternatives thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 2 other Bay Area grocers.
Berkeley Bowl carries protein drinks in real depth, 84 SKUs against a fleet median of 22, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
