Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Kodiak is a brand specializing in protein-packed, whole-grain breakfast and snack products.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 4 SKUs across 3 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 3 categories to widen and 4 new doors to enter.
Lead with Buttermilk & Honey Flapjack & Waffle Mix in Pancake & Waffle Mix.
