Reading the shelf…
Mill Valley Market is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, mid-size at about 8,590 sq ft each.
Plum Organics is a brand dedicated to providing organic baby food and children's snacks, founded in 2007.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 6 SKUs across 3 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen.
Lead with Peach, Banana & Apricot Baby Food in Baby Food Purees.
Mill Valley Market stocks baby food purees thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 6 other Bay Area grocers.
Mill Valley Market carries other snack bars in real depth, 50 SKUs against a fleet median of 23, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
Mill Valley Market merchandises 3 of the 3 categories the brand sells.

Presence and depth are measured from Mill Valley 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. Mill Valley Market profile →
