IME, this works in cities with a moderate Jewish, but not very observant, community. People who will want some Maneschevitz Ashkenazi "soul food" for a holiday or two, but don't keep kosher year-round.
But in areas wirth very few Jews, I wouldn't count on it.

I will echo this. In many very rural areas, you will not find a specific kosher aisle in the supermarket. I would plan on making do with what you can with national brands.
For bread, you could consider doing no-knead / long rise recipes and baking in a toaster oven. You just stir together with a wooden spoon or spatula, let rise in a tupperware or big ziplock in the car all day while you drive, then bake when you arrive. There are also quick options like flatbreads and 30 minute rolls.

Kosher tortillas or wraps are also a good take-along food staple. They take up very little space and keep well.

For corn tortilla or tacos you don’t need to worry about pas. Can get that anywhere with hechsherim.

wraps are shelf stable and keep well. Also regular sliced bread will keep for a few days. It might go a bit stale but you can toast it. So I would bring that along if space is not an issue.

Nowadays, they do. I've been to some fairly remote places with no Jewish community at all, and come across this. Like I said, it may only be a shelf but the big chain stores (not a mom and pop) almost always do.
