Nicasio Valley Cheese Company at Pacific Market
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
Nicasio Valley Cheese Company is a family-owned artisan cheese producer based in Nicasio, California, specializing in organic, farmstead cheeses.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 2 new doors to enter, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Nicasio Valley Organic Brie Cheese Round in Brie.
Pacific Market stocks brie 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 brie: Pacific Market stocks only 7 there, so Nicasio Valley Organic Brie Cheese Round stands out rather than blending in.
Pacific Market merchandises 3 of the 5 categories the brand sells.

Presence and depth are measured from Pacific 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. Pacific Market profile →
