Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Kashi is a brand specializing in plant-based, nutrient-rich cereals and other food products.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 4 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 1 new door to enter.
Lead with Breakfast Cereal, Organic, Whole Grain, Autumn Wheat, 18oz Box (1 Box) in Cereal.
Fairfax Market stocks cereal thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 7 other Bay Area grocers.
