Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Muir Glen is a brand known for its organic tomato products, including a variety of canned and jarred tomatoes, sauces, salsas, and ketchup.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 12 SKUs across 6 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 6 categories to widen and 1 new door to enter.

Fairfax Market stocks canned crushed tomatoes thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 6 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is canned crushed tomatoes: Fairfax Market stocks only 9 there, so Muir Glen Organic Crushed Tomatoes With Basil stands out rather than blending in.
Fairfax Market merchandises 9 of the 9 categories the brand sells.
