Reading the shelf…
Whole Foods Market is a natural independent running 10 Bay Area stores, large-format at about 30,160 sq ft each, indexing high on established names versus other Bay Area grocers.
GOOD GOOD offers a range of fruit spreads and chocolate hazelnut spreads designed to provide classic flavors without the added sugar.
Good Good isn’t on Whole Foods Market’s shelf yet in any of its 10 stores. The opening: 1 category where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.

Whole Foods Market stocks peanut butter 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 peanut butter: Whole Foods Market stocks only 11 there, so Good Good Creamy Peanut Butter stands out rather than blending in.
Whole Foods Market merchandises 1 of the 4 categories the brand sells.

Not here yet, but the shelf is real: a clean first door into a category the brand runs deep in.
The store barely carries this category, so it is a hard sell.
Good Good’s SKUs Whole Foods Market doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
Presence and depth are measured from Whole Foods 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. Whole Foods Market profile →
