Reading the shelf…
Mill Valley Market is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, mid-size at about 8,590 sq ft each.
Enzo's Table is a family-owned brand based in California's San Joaquin Valley, specializing in gourmet food products such as almond butters, vinegars, and biscotti.
Enzo's Table isn’t on Mill Valley Market’s shelf yet. The opening: 4 categories where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.
Lead with Traditional Almond Biscotti in Biscotti.
Mill Valley Market stocks biscotti thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 3 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is biscotti: Mill Valley Market stocks only 9 there, so Enzo's Table Traditional Almond Biscotti stands out rather than blending in.
Mill Valley Market merchandises 5 of the 5 categories the brand sells.

Presence and depth are measured from Mill Valley Market’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. Mill Valley Market profile →

The store barely carries this category, so it is a hard sell.
