Reading the shelf…
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
Mateo's is a brand specializing in gourmet salsas, known for their fresh, homemade taste achieved through the use of freshly chopped jalapeños and herbs, slow-simmered in kettles.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Gourmet Salsa, Hot in Salsas.
Pacific Market stocks salsas thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 5 other Bay Area grocers.
Pacific Market merchandises 1 of the 1 category the brand sells.

Every category Mateo's plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Pacific Market. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.

Presence and depth are measured from Pacific Market’s 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. Pacific Market profile →
