Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 3 SKUs across 3 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 3 new doors to enter.

Fairfax Market stocks dried prunes 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.

Fairfax Market merchandises 10 of the 11 categories the brand sells.
