Reading the shelf…
United Markets is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, large-format at about 26,260 sq ft each.
Sukhi's Indian is a brand specializing in authentic Indian prepared meals and frozen foods.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 14 SKUs across 6 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 4 categories to widen and 2 new doors to enter.
