Reading the shelf…
Sprouts Farmers Market is a natural independent running 1 Bay Area store, mid-size at about 20,322 sq ft each, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Navitas Organics is a California-based brand founded in 2003, specializing in organic superfoods.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 13 SKUs across 9 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 6 categories to widen and 3 new doors to enter.

Sprouts Farmers Market stocks other baking morsels thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 3 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is other baking morsels: Sprouts Farmers Market stocks only 1 there, so Navitas Organics Cacao Butter Wafers stands out rather than blending in.
Sprouts Farmers Market merchandises 13 of the 15 categories the brand sells.
