Reading the shelf…
Woodlands is a specialty independent running 3 Bay Area stores, small-format at about 2,336 sq ft each, indexing high on clean-organic versus other Bay Area grocers.
Terrapin Ridge Farms is a specialty food brand known for its diverse range of sauces, condiments, and gourmet products.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 6 SKUs across 3 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 2 categories to widen and 5 new doors to enter, replicated across all 3 stores.
