My/mochi at Driver's Market
Driver's Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
My/Mochi is a brand specializing in mochi ice cream, a unique dessert that combines soft, chewy mochi dough with creamy ice cream.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 1 new door to enter.
Lead with Ice Cream Strawberry in Mochi.
Driver's Market stocks mochi thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 7 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is mochi: Driver's Market stocks only 1 there, so My/Mochi Ice Cream Strawberry stands out rather than blending in.
Driver's Market merchandises 2 of the 3 categories the brand sells.

The full runway

On shelf here, but only 1 of 15 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.

Already on the shelf
Presence and depth are measured from Driver's 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. Driver's Market profile →
