Reading the shelf…
Fairfax Market is a independent grocer running 1 Bay Area store.
It’s already on the shelf here, with 1 SKU across 1 category. The growth is depth and breadth: 1 category to widen.
Lead with Pork and Beans Canned Beans in Canned Baked Beans.
Fairfax Market stocks canned baked beans thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 2 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is canned baked beans: Fairfax Market stocks only 9 there, so Van Camp’s Pork and Beans Canned Beans stands out rather than blending in.
Fairfax Market merchandises 1 of the 1 category the brand sells.
no strong clean/diet signal either way.
brand excitement 30/100.
enters a thin canned baked beans shelf as a point of difference.
Every category Van Camp’s plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Fairfax Market. 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 1 of 4 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
Where it would price in canned baked beans. Each dot is a product on the shelf, by its cost per oz (hover for which). Van Camp’s (orange) sits in line with the shelf.
Van Camp’s’ SKUs Fairfax Market doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
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 →
