Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Nature Nate's is a leading U.S. honey brand known for its 100% pure, raw, and unfiltered honey products.
Nature Nate's isn’t on Fairfax Market’s shelf yet. The opening: 2 categories where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.

The store barely carries this category, so it is a hard sell.
