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.
Olive Truck specializes in crafting premium extra virgin olive oils, utilizing a mobile mill to press olives shortly after harvest in Petaluma, Sonoma County, California.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen, replicated across all 3 stores.
