Katz at Driver's Market
Driver's Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 6 SKUs across 4 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 3 new doors to enter.
Lead with Zinfandel Vinegar in Red Wine Vinegar.
Driver's Market stocks red wine vinegar 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.
Driver's Market carries honey in real depth, 43 SKUs against a fleet median of 17, 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 red wine vinegar: Driver's Market stocks only 3 there, so Katz Zinfandel Vinegar stands out rather than blending in. Lead with the red wine vinegar, and position the honey as a finishing or gift item.
Driver's Market merchandises 8 of the 13 categories the brand sells.

The full runway
Every category Katz plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Driver's Market. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.
On shelf here, but only 1 of 3 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
What to bring to expand
Katz’s SKUs Driver's Market doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
Already on the shelf
Presence and depth are measured from Driver's 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. Driver's Market profile →
