Zen at Driver's Market
Driver's 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.

Driver's Market stocks pudding snacks thinly, so a differentiated snack stands out instead of becoming the Nth option on a crowded shelf. It already earns space at 3 other Bay Area grocers.
The more differentiated opening is pudding snacks: Driver's Market stocks only 6 there, so Zen Pudding, Plant Based Chocolate, Oat Milk stands out rather than blending in.

The full runway
Every category Zen plays in across the Bay Area grocers we track, and where it stands at Driver's 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 3 SKUs. Room to widen the line.
The store barely carries this category, so it is a hard sell.
What to bring to expand
Zen’s SKUs Driver's Market doesn’t carry yet, ordered by how many other Bay Area grocers already stock them.
