Margarit (my wife) and I enjoy the maneuverability of this Second Generation Cart and Cup Holder Unveiled. This one has evolved to include a Green powdercoated finish and cup (or baby bottle) holder for leisurely shopping. Of course traditional carts and new “oversize” traditional cart designs are a mainstay on heavy shopping days. But…
Newer, more functional flip-front hooks have a great articulated appeal over stationary right-angle-mount scan hooks. Plus they avoid the problem of stocking different backplates and label holders for each different right-angle hook gauge. Here an enterprising retailer has mounted a flip-front label holder on a right angle hook merging SOME of the advantages of each…
This is a category where imaged Back Tags might make sense. There are a multiplicity of brands, battery types, quantities per pack, and chemical compositions to match. Restocking would be aided by a Back Tag with a visual reference. Compare imaged tags and labels at… “Shelf-Edge Imaging Evolves” “Imaged Battery Backtags” “Clear Plastic Pegboard at Risk”…
Not quite a fixture, but worthy of comment as the type of signage customers appreciate. A health-conscious populous would take you up on this offer of quality products. And your store brand gains stature by “standing on the shoulders of giants” … citing store items “certified” by a group as prestigious as the American Heart…
Recently I noticed a trend toward oversize die-cut channels in carded merchandise packaging. Here I find the spacious channel well proportioned and appealing for this item. Normally my Engineering Department might recommend a channeled packaging approach for freshness-dated merchandise, allowing easier restocking at the rear of a hook rather than removing and re-threading an entire facing.…

You thought something as simple as a Push Button would exist in a single style? According to Wikipedia Push-Pin was originally an English game dating…
I thought this Manual-Feed First Aid for Retail a fine application. Shelf Management Systems can be good solutions in general for small packages that easily become disheveled and unruly. Add manual feed and the customer can easily access product at the back of the lane … while unknowingly automatically re-facing the shelf for you. Now…
The photo does not do justice to this Woodgrain Pegboard For Natural Merchandising os a POP display. It matched perfectly and appeared realistic in the extreme. The look of wood also reinforced the healthy natural appeal of the product — nuts. I am amazed how infrequently a creative finish is used on pegboard, when they are found frequently on…
My guess is a hard-pressed retailer is attempting to make good use of an earlier but now stock-depleated display. In my father’s day as an independent grocer, he would acquire display fixtures as part of a brand promotion, and repurpose them later. In this case removing the branded color shelf edge label strip might avoid…
Classic wood shelf edge C-channel as seen in bakery which, though remodeled, has decades of history in the business and retained many of the original fixtures. Earlier posts on Bakery Label Holders were highly read. So I thought it might be instructive to show original solutions, which though old, were still in use. I must…
