Reading the shelf…
Whole Foods Market is a natural independent running 10 Bay Area stores, large-format at about 30,160 sq ft each, indexing high on established names versus other Bay Area grocers.
Starbucks is a prominent coffee brand offering a variety of coffee products for home brewing, including K-Cup pods and ground coffee.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 new door to enter, replicated across all 10 stores.
Whole Foods Market merchandises 3 of the 14 categories the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 40/100.
the categories it plays in are already deep here.
Every category Starbucks plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Whole Foods Market. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
Fully stocked here (1/1 SKUs).
Starbucks’ SKUs Whole Foods Market doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
Presence and depth are measured from Whole Foods 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. Whole Foods Market profile →
