Stellar at Fairfax Market
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Stellar Granola offers a diverse range of granola flavors that cater to various dietary preferences, including gluten-free, nut-free, vegan, and soy-free options.
Stellar isn’t on Fairfax Market’s shelf yet. The opening: 2 categories where the shelf is already deep and the brand runs strong elsewhere.
Lead with Bold & Herby Vegan Butter Braid Seasoned With Roasted Garlic Onion & Monk Fruit in Other Snacks.
Fairfax Market stocks other snacks thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 3 other Bay Area grocers.
Fairfax Market carries pretzels in real depth, 33 SKUs against a fleet median of 16, 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 other snacks: Fairfax Market stocks only 12 there, so Stellar Bold & Herby Vegan Butter Braid Seasoned With Roasted Garlic Onion & Monk Fruit stands out rather than blending in. Lead with the other snacks, and position the pretzels as a finishing or gift item.
Fairfax Market merchandises 2 of the 3 categories the brand sells.

The full runway
Every category Stellar 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.

What to bring to land
Stellar’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 →
