Riceselect at Woodlands
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.
Riceselect isn’t on Woodlands’ shelf yet in any of its 3 stores. The opening: 3 categories where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.
Lead with Premium Arborio Risotto Rice, Gluten-Free, Non-Gmo in Other Rice.
Woodlands stocks other rice thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 4 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is other rice: Woodlands stocks only 4 there, so RiceSelect Premium Arborio Risotto Rice, Gluten-Free, Non-Gmo stands out rather than blending in.
Woodlands merchandises 6 of the 7 categories the brand sells.
