Kame at Pacific Market
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
Kame isn’t on Pacific Market’s shelf yet in any of its 2 stores. The opening: 2 categories where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.
Lead with Sweet Chili Sugar Free Sauce in Chili Sauces.
Pacific Market stocks chili sauces 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 barbecue sauces in real depth, 45 SKUs against a fleet median of 14, 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 chili sauces: Pacific Market stocks only 14 there, so Kame Sweet Chili Sugar Free Sauce stands out rather than blending in. Lead with the chili sauces, and position the barbecue sauces as a finishing or gift item.
Pacific Market merchandises 2 of the 2 categories the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 45/100.
enters a thin chili sauces shelf as a point of difference.
The full runway · across 2 stores
Every category Kame 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.

What to bring to land
Kame’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 →
