Katz at Pacific Market
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 8 new doors to enter, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Toaster Pastries - Cinnamon in Packaged Toaster Pastries.
Pacific Market stocks packaged toaster pastries thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 2 other Bay Area grocers.
Pacific Market carries olive oils in real depth, 63 SKUs against a fleet median of 31, 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 packaged toaster pastries: Pacific Market stocks only 2 there, so Katz Toaster Pastries - Cinnamon stands out rather than blending in. Lead with the packaged toaster pastries, and position the olive oils as a finishing or gift item.
Pacific Market merchandises 11 of the 13 categories the brand sells.

The full runway · across 2 stores
Every category Katz 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.
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 Pacific 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 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 →
