Reading the shelf…
World Market is a conventional independent running 4 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 6 SKUs across 3 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen, replicated across all 4 stores.
Lead with Korean Style Chicken Flavored Snack in Other Chips.
World Market stocks other chips thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 1 other Bay Area grocer.
The more differentiated opening is other chips: World Market stocks only 4 there, so ORION Korean Style Chicken Flavored Snack stands out rather than blending in.
World Market merchandises 3 of the 5 categories the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 35/100.
enters a thin other chips shelf as a point of difference.

On shelf here, but only 4 of 5 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Fully stocked here (1/1 SKUs).

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

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