Solely at Mill Valley Market
Mill Valley Market is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, mid-size at about 8,590 sq ft each.
Solely is a brand specializing in organic fruit snacks, including dried fruits and fruit gummies, made from whole fruits without added sugars or preservatives.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 3 SKUs across 3 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 3 new doors to enter.
Lead with Organic Mango Fruit Jerky 5 Pack in Dried Mango.
Mill Valley Market stocks dried mango thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 1 other Bay Area grocer.
The more differentiated opening is dried mango: Mill Valley Market stocks only 10 there, so Solely Organic Mango Fruit Jerky 5 Pack stands out rather than blending in.
Mill Valley Market merchandises 6 of the 7 categories the brand sells.

Presence and depth are measured from Mill Valley 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. Mill Valley Market profile →
