Kite Hill 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.
Kite Hill is a U.S.-based company that specializes in plant-based dairy alternatives, offering a range of innovative products made primarily from almonds.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 8 SKUs across 4 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 4 new doors to enter, replicated across all 3 stores.
Lead with Yogurt, Plant-Based, Greek Style, Plain, Unsweetened in Greek & Icelandic Yogurt.
Woodlands stocks greek & icelandic yogurt 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.
Woodlands carries greek & icelandic yogurt in real depth, 76 SKUs against a fleet median of 36, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
