Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Mavuno Harvest is a U.S.-based brand that specializes in organic dried fruits, nuts, and fruit bites, founded in 2011 by Phil Hughes.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 3 new doors to enter.
Lead with Organic Dried Mango Dipped in Dark Chocolate in Chocolate Covered Dried Fruit.
Fairfax Market stocks chocolate covered dried fruit 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.
The more differentiated opening is chocolate covered dried fruit: Fairfax Market stocks only 1 there, so Mavuno Harvest Organic Dried Mango Dipped in Dark Chocolate stands out rather than blending in.
Fairfax Market merchandises 7 of the 10 categories the brand sells.
non-gmo, organic, paleo against the store's assortment lean.
brand excitement 65/100.
enters a thin chocolate covered dried fruit shelf as a point of difference.
Every category Mavuno Harvest plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Fairfax Market. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.
On shelf here, but only 1 of 3 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
Mavuno Harvest’s SKUs Fairfax Market doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
Presence and depth are measured from Fairfax 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. Fairfax Market profile →
