Reading the shelf…
United Markets is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, large-format at about 26,260 sq ft each.
Taylor Farms is a brand specializing in prepared salads and salad kits, offering a variety of flavors and organic options.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 15 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 6 new doors to enter.
Lead with Organic Kale Caesar Chopped Salad Kit in Bagged Salad Kits.
United Markets stocks bagged salad kits thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 5 other Bay Area grocers.
United Markets carries trail mix in real depth, 28 SKUs against a fleet median of 7, so a new entry there is the Nth option, and its per-unit price would likely sit near the top of a crowded shelf.
United Markets merchandises 12 of the 22 categories the brand sells.

the categories it plays in are already deep here.
Every category Taylor Farms plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at United Markets. Depth is the distinct SKUs the store carries there versus the fleet median, shown next to the rival brands already on that shelf.
On shelf here, but only 15 of 32 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.

Taylor Farms’ SKUs United Markets doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
Presence and depth are measured from United Markets’ 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. United Markets profile →
