Reading the shelf…
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
Ingelhoffer Brand isn’t on Pacific Market’s shelf yet in any of its 2 stores. The opening: 1 category where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.
Lead with World Market Inglehoffer Spicy Brown Mustard in Spicy Brown Mustard.
Pacific Market stocks spicy brown mustard 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 spicy brown mustard: Pacific Market stocks only 6 there, so World Market Inglehoffer Spicy Brown Mustard stands out rather than blending in.
Pacific Market merchandises 1 of the 1 category the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 45/100.
enters a thin spicy brown mustard shelf as a point of difference.
Every category Ingelhoffer Brand 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.
Not here yet, but the shelf is real: a clean first door into a category the brand runs deep in.
Where it would price in spicy brown mustard. Each dot is a product on the shelf, by its cost per oz (hover for which).
Ingelhoffer Brand’s 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 →
