Reading the shelf…
United Markets is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, large-format at about 26,260 sq ft each.
Synergy is a brand specializing in raw, fermented kombucha drinks, known for their high probiotic content and health benefits.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 11 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 1 new door to enter.
