Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 3 SKUs across 3 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 3 categories to widen and 2 new doors to enter.

Fairfax Market stocks mixed nuts 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 mixed nuts: Fairfax Market stocks only 5 there, so Sahale Snacks Classic Fruit + Nut Trail Mix stands out rather than blending in.
