Reading the shelf…
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.
Nana Joes Granola is a San Francisco-based brand that specializes in handcrafted, gluten-free, vegan, and organic granola products.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 4 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 1 new door to enter, replicated across all 3 stores.
Lead with Cluster Blend: Cashew Butter & Peach in Granola.
Woodlands stocks granola thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 11 other Bay Area grocers.

Presence and depth are measured from Woodlands’ 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. Woodlands profile →
