Reading the shelf…
Driver's Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Thai Kitchen is a brand dedicated to bringing authentic Thai flavors to the American market, offering a variety of products including curry pastes, sauces, noodles, and coconut milk.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 3 SKUs across 3 categories. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 5 new doors to enter.
Lead with Unsweetened Coconut Milk in Canned Coconut Milk And Cream.
Driver's Market stocks canned coconut milk and cream thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 10 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is canned coconut milk and cream: Driver's Market stocks only 6 there, so Thai Kitchen Unsweetened Coconut Milk stands out rather than blending in.
Driver's Market merchandises 10 of the 11 categories the brand sells.

On shelf here, but only 1 of 7 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.

Presence and depth are measured from Driver's 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. Driver's Market profile →
