Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
Tofurky is a brand specializing in plant-based meat alternatives, offering a variety of products such as sausages, chick'n, and deli slices.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 2 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 2 new doors to enter.
Lead with Deli Slices, Plant-based, Roasted Turk'y in Vegetarian Deli Meat Substitutes.
Fairfax Market stocks vegetarian deli meat substitutes 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 vegetarian deli meat substitutes: Fairfax Market stocks only 3 there, so Tofurky Deli Slices, Plant-based, Roasted Turk'y stands out rather than blending in.
Fairfax Market merchandises 5 of the 6 categories the brand sells.

Presence and depth are measured from Fairfax 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. Fairfax Market profile →
