Nutella at Pacific Market
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
Nutella is a globally recognized brand known for its iconic hazelnut and cocoa spread.
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 Hazelnut Spread with Cocoa, Breakfast Favorite, 13 oz Jar in Hazelnut Spread.
Pacific Market stocks hazelnut spread 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.
The more differentiated opening is hazelnut spread: Pacific Market stocks only 2 there, so Nutella Hazelnut Spread with Cocoa, Breakfast Favorite, 13 oz Jar stands out rather than blending in.
Pacific Market merchandises 4 of the 5 categories the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 50/100.
enters a thin hazelnut spread shelf as a point of difference.
The full runway · across 2 stores
Every category Nutella plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Pacific Market. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.
On shelf here, but only 1 of 8 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
What to bring to expand

Already on the shelf
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 →
