Muir Glen at Woodlands
Woodlands is a specialty independent running 3 Bay Area stores, small-format at about 2,336 sq ft each, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
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 10 SKUs across 5 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 3 new doors to enter, replicated across all 3 stores.
Lead with Organic Tomato Paste in Tomato Paste.
Woodlands stocks tomato paste 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.
The more differentiated opening is tomato paste: Woodlands stocks only 7 there, so Muir Glen Organic Tomato Paste stands out rather than blending in.
