Reading the shelf…
United Markets is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, large-format at about 26,260 sq ft each.
Seven Sundays is a brand specializing in nutrient-dense cereals, including muesli, oat protein, and sunflower varieties.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 4 new doors to enter.
Lead with Grain Free Sunflower Cereal, Real Cocoa in Cereal.
United Markets stocks cereal thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 7 other Bay Area grocers.
United Markets carries cereal in real depth, 171 SKUs against a fleet median of 56, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
United Markets merchandises 5 of the 5 categories the brand sells.
non-gmo, organic, vegan against the store's assortment lean.
brand excitement 70/100.
the categories it plays in are already deep here.
Every category Seven Sundays plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at United Markets. 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 1 of 13 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
Where it would price in cereal. Each dot is a product on the shelf, by its cost per oz (hover for which). Seven Sundays (orange) sits well above the shelf.
Seven Sundays’ SKUs United Markets doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
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 →
