Reading the shelf…
Pacific Market is a specialty independent running 2 Bay Area stores.
Sparkling Ice® is a brand specializing in zero-sugar sparkling water beverages known for their bold flavors.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 5 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen, replicated across all 2 stores.
Lead with Sparkling Water, Zero Sugar, Classic Lemonade in Sparkling Water.
Pacific Market stocks sparkling water thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 6 other Bay Area grocers.
Pacific Market merchandises 1 of the 1 category the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.

On shelf here, but only 5 of 33 SKUs. Room to widen the line.

Presence and depth are measured from Pacific 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. Pacific Market profile →
