Reading the shelf…
Mill Valley Market is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, mid-size at about 8,590 sq ft each.
Izze is an American brand known for its sparkling juice beverages, founded in 2002 in Boulder, Colorado.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 12 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen.
Lead with Sparkling Juice Beverage Blend, Blackberry, No Sugar Added, 6 Cans in Sparkling Juice.
Mill Valley Market stocks sparkling juice thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 11 other Bay Area grocers.
Mill Valley Market carries sparkling juice in real depth, 45 SKUs against a fleet median of 13, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
