Community Market CA is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Health-Ade is a wellness beverage company known for its organic kombucha, which is rich in probiotics.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 13 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 1 new door to enter.

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