Lakanto at Falletti Foods
Falletti Foods is a conventional independent running 1 Bay Area store, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Lakanto is a brand specializing in natural, zero-calorie sweeteners and sugar substitutes primarily made from monk fruit.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 2 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 4 new doors to enter.

The more differentiated opening is sugar substitutes: Falletti Foods stocks only 7 there, so Lakanto Classic Monk Fruit Sweetener with Erythritol, White Sugar stands out rather than blending in.

Already on the shelf
Presence and depth are measured from Falletti Foods’ 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. Falletti Foods profile →
