Reading the shelf…
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
Happy Baby Organics is a brand dedicated to providing organic baby food products, including infant formulas, purees, and snacks.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 3 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 1 new door to enter, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Organics Baby Snacks, Gentle Teething Wafers, Gluten Free & Vegan, Sweet Potato & Banana in Baby Snacks.
Pacific Market stocks baby snacks thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 6 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is baby snacks: Pacific Market stocks only 3 there, so Happy Baby Organics Organics Baby Snacks, Gentle Teething Wafers, Gluten Free & Vegan, Sweet Potato & Banana stands out rather than blending in.
Pacific Market merchandises 3 of the 4 categories the brand sells.

Every category Happy Baby Organics plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Pacific Market. 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 3 of 9 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
Happy Baby Organics’ SKUs Pacific Market doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.



Presence and depth are measured from Pacific 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. Pacific Market profile →
The store barely carries this category, so it is a hard sell.
