Reading the shelf…
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 5 SKUs across 2 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Chips Cheddar & Sour Cream Avocado Oil Wavy Cut Sweet Potato Chips in Vegetable Chips.
Pacific Market stocks vegetable chips 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.
Pacific Market carries potato chips in real depth, 109 SKUs against a fleet median of 46.5, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf. The more differentiated opening is vegetable chips: Pacific Market stocks only 12 there, so Jackson's Chips Cheddar & Sour Cream Avocado Oil Wavy Cut Sweet Potato Chips stands out rather than blending in. Lead with the vegetable chips, and position the potato chips as a finishing or gift item.
Pacific Market merchandises 2 of the 2 categories the brand sells.

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 →
