KariKari at Woodlands
Woodlands is a specialty independent running 3 Bay Area stores, small-format at about 2,336 sq ft each, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
KariKari offers a distinctive Garlic Chili Crisp crafted in Seattle, WA, known for its rich blend of spicy, garlicky, and umami flavors.
KariKari isn’t on Woodlands’ shelf yet in any of its 3 stores. The opening: 1 category where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.
