Opportunities
New doors · no Rubicon in our capture yet
Bay Area grocers where neither the digital catalog nor our shelf photos show Rubicon· but the shelf it belongs on is already there, ranked by fit. Fit blends category coverage, rival presence, price-band match, and openness to independents at this scale; weigh the footprint chips and route notes against it · a 7-door chain and a single great shop are different prizes. Our capture is partial, so a widely-distributed brand may already be carried through channels we don’t index.
Lead with Rubicon Cupcakes, Red Velvet, Handcrafted · its most-distributed SKU (12 doors) in Cupcakes, the biggest opening. The closest open door is Safeway · 3 rivals already on that shelf.
