The opportunity

Two markets in a single state

Washington combines two markets in one: the Seattle metro area — a tech economy, high disposable income, and premium retailers — and the state's agricultural heartland (Yakima Valley, Tri-Cities), where the Latino community has decades of roots and constant demand for the products of home.

It's also home to Costco's global headquarters and one of the Northwest's densest networks of Kroger supermarkets (Fred Meyer, QFC) — relationships we work from our West Coast platform.

Dual channel

Premium in Seattle, tradition in Yakima

The same brand can play two strategies: a gourmet presentation in Seattle's premium channel and a family format in the Latino markets of central Washington. We design the entry to capture both.
