Reading the shelf…
United Markets is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, large-format at about 26,260 sq ft each.
Serenity Kids is a premium baby and toddler food brand based in Austin, Texas, founded in 2016.
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.
Lead with Free Range Chicken with Organic Peas & Carrots in Baby Food Purees.
United Markets 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 13 other Bay Area grocers.
United Markets merchandises 2 of the 2 categories the brand sells.

Presence and depth are measured from United Markets’ 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. United Markets profile →
