Siete at United Markets
United Markets is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, large-format at about 26,260 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 9 SKUs across 4 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 4 categories to widen and 16 new doors to enter.
Lead with Grain Free Taco Shells in Taco Shells.
United Markets stocks taco shells thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 9 other Bay Area grocers.
United Markets carries packaged cookies in real depth, 189 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 taco shells: United Markets stocks only 5 there, so Siete Grain Free Taco Shells stands out rather than blending in. Lead with the taco shells, and position the packaged cookies as a finishing or gift item.
United Markets merchandises 21 of the 23 categories the brand sells.

Already on the shelf
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 →
