Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Sonoma County Meat Company isn’t on Fairfax Market’s shelf yet. The opening: 1 category where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.
Lead with Honey Lavender Bacon in Sliced Bacon.
Fairfax Market stocks sliced bacon thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 2 other Bay Area grocers.
Fairfax Market carries sliced bacon in real depth, 12 SKUs against a fleet median of 6, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
Fairfax Market merchandises 1 of the 1 category the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 55/100.
the categories it plays in are already deep here.
Every category Sonoma County Meat Company plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Fairfax Market. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.
Not here yet, but the shelf is real: a clean first door into a category the brand runs deep in.
Where it would price in sliced bacon. Each dot is a product on the shelf, by its cost per oz (hover for which). Sonoma County Meat Company (orange) sits well above the shelf.
Sonoma County Meat Company’s SKUs Fairfax Market doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
Presence and depth are measured from Fairfax 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. Fairfax Market profile →
