Reading the shelf…
World Market is a conventional independent running 4 Bay Area stores, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
San Pellegrino is a renowned brand specializing in sparkling natural mineral water and Italian sparkling beverages.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 2 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 1 new door to enter, replicated across all 4 stores.
Lead with Italian Sparkling Drink Limonata in Sparkling Juice.
World Market stocks sparkling juice thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 14 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is sparkling juice: World Market stocks only 7 there, so San Pellegrino Italian Sparkling Drink Limonata stands out rather than blending in.
World Market merchandises 5 of the 7 categories the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 50/100.
enters a thin sparkling juice shelf as a point of difference.
Every category San Pellegrino plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at World Market. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.
On shelf here, but only 2 of 18 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
Where it would price in sparkling juice. Each dot is a product on the shelf, by its cost per fl oz (hover for which). San Pellegrino (orange) sits in line with the shelf.
San Pellegrino’s SKUs World Market doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
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 →
