Reading the shelf…
Mill Valley Market is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, mid-size at about 8,590 sq ft each.
Siete Foods is a Mexican-American brand that specializes in grain-free and dairy-free products inspired by traditional Mexican cuisine.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 5 SKUs across 4 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 4 categories to widen and 14 new doors to enter.
Lead with Tortillas, Grain Free, Cassava Flour in Grain-Free Tortillas.
Mill Valley Market stocks grain-free tortillas thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 8 other Bay Area grocers.
Mill Valley Market carries packaged cookies in real depth, 148 SKUs against a fleet median of 67, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf. The more differentiated opening is grain-free tortillas: Mill Valley Market stocks only 2 there, so Siete Tortillas, Grain Free, Cassava Flour stands out rather than blending in. Lead with the grain-free tortillas, and position the packaged cookies as a finishing or gift item.
Mill Valley Market merchandises 20 of the 23 categories the brand sells.
