Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Lily's is a brand specializing in no-sugar-added sweets, offering a range of products including baking chocolate, chocolate style bars, peanut butter cups, and gummies.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 5 SKUs across 2 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 3 new doors to enter.
Lead with Assorted Flavored No Sugar Added, Gummy Bears Bag, 1.8 oz in Gummy Candies.
Fairfax Market stocks gummy candies 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.
