Reading the shelf…
United Markets is a specialty independent running 1 Bay Area store, large-format at about 26,260 sq ft each.
Traditional Medicinals is a leading provider of organic and herbal teas, founded in 1974 by herbalist Rosemary Gladstar and activist Drake Sadler.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 19 SKUs across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen and 1 new door to enter.
United Markets merchandises 2 of the 2 categories the brand sells.

Every category Traditional Medicinals 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 19 of 50 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Already stocked here in other categories, so this one is a natural extension.
Traditional Medicinals’ 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 →
