Gondola Shelving Accessories

Shelves on their own can work in most situations for retail. However, customization is often necessary, and adding accessories can be of great use when adjusting to need. For slatwall shelves, inserts can increase the durability of the shelving or add a distinct design accent that impresses customers. A bakery could utilize dump bins to stock freshly-baked baguettes, alongside custom shelves specially made for bread. Stores can draw attention to promotions or give a special flair to current products by adding a gondola header or aisle sign atop the shelf. There are many ways to make store aisles stand out with gondola shelving.

Gondola Shelves

Store Shelves for Your Needs

Gondola shelves are a key part of any retail design. They are, after all, where products go in each aisle.

Retail Shelf Management

Redevelop Your Space With Store Shelving

As the economy continues to grow, stores have multiple opportunities to improve their space. They can increase the number of products they have available to customers. But more importantly, they can have flexibility in how they lay out their stores. Whether the goal is to better specialize each product section, expand the stock available on the store floor, or provide better visibility to promotional items, retail store managers seek to redevelop their space so as to drive sales. This is where gondola shelving in different forms come into play.

Gondola Shelving

The most effective form of reforming retail space is adding shelving units. No matter the form, these units will make the most use out of the space, giving room to various products. For example, a single-sided or wall unit could be great for pharmacies looking to add space for cold medicine or various bandages.

Double-sided island gondola units help create store aisles, but that’s not their only use. A liquor store could utilize smaller shelves to showcase different wines picked up by local or specialty vineyards, for example. They come in various heights to serve different purposes. Convenience stores may prefer shorter shelving units to maintain a clear line of sight with all of its customers, while at the same time giving said customers a clear view of what the store has to offer. Hardware and grocery stores may prefer taller units to provide a greater variety of products on the retail floor.

Lozier Shelving

DGS Retail is a wholesale distributor of Lozier gondola shelving units. The leading manufacturer of store fixtures, Lozier offers a distinct level of durability and reliability, as well as a consistent form that can be used anywhere for any sort of store experience.

Madix Shelves

In addition, DGS Retail distributes gondola shelves from Madix. The company provides a variety of shelving units that provide maximum flexibility for retail. With various solutions for promotions, merchandising and more, Madix covers a wide number of stores, from electronics stores to health and beauty shops.

Gondola Shelves

A shelving unit isn’t complete without a proper set of a shelves. How stores uses these shelves can highly depend on the situation and type of business offered. A pharmacy will likely have aisles where the products being offered are very small. That allows for a greater number of shelves to maximize the number of products immediately available to consumers. Appliance stores may want fewer shelves that bear a greater load, so as to put larger items such as vacuum cleaners on display.

Size and angle adjustment are also important. Need to max out stock and put everything on display? Stores will likely want the same depth shelves covering their aisles. Want to provide a better view of products on display? A cascading shelf approach may work best in this situation. Some products are also best viewed while laid on their sides rather than upright, which is where a downward slope angle may prove useful over a flat position.

Advantages of Retail Shelf Management Systems

Save time and hours of labor with a well-designed shelf management system. Our studies have shown that a properly designed shelf management system will save 60% of labor in most product resets and cut-ins. In many stores with a poor shelf management system, customers can aimlessly walk down aisles with poorly stocked shelves and witness items out of place or stock. Understanding your inventory's needs and sales ability will help you develop a shelf system that best suits your business's needs. One type of shelving system is not ideal for every type of product. For products that sell quickly, you want more space to stock multiple products on one shelf.

While items that do not sell as often, you may not need that much surface space to make the shelf look fully stocked. You also risk taking away from other products that sell better. Business owners should always consider their shelf system as a means of interaction with the customer. It's the customer's' first encounter with the product you are trying to sell. A disorganized, poorly stocked shelf system may be a turnoff for many customers. Do not have them turn around and walk away. Use uniquely designed gondola shelving solutions to attract business, not turn it away. Gondola shelves with the right accessories have the chance to enhance a business and make it grow. DGS Retail offers a wide selection on retail shelf dividers and shelf pushers.

Convenience Store Shelving

The recent effects of the global economy have only worked to reinforce some trends in food marketing. This includes the continuation of channel blurring where various food categories can be found in non-traditional retailers. The fresh produce industry is no exception to this.

Grocery store managers, retail store designers and retail architects are interested in advertising fresh produce to their shoppers. At over $60 billion in annual sales and growing it’s no wonder the industry is constantly on the lookout for new ways to advertise fresh produce through signage and retail displays. Fresh produce is one of the largest growth areas in the grocery industry. Most grocery shoppers have online alternatives to many of the products displayed with traditional grocery store merchandising ideas. In fact close to 10% of America consumers already shop for groceries online. However, the fresh and prepared foods that are usually located in the perimeter or outer race-track of the store continue to drive more than their share of sales. Because of this produce sales are still growing. Our studies have also shown that promoting produce display ideas along the perimeter of the store will increase sales in the center of the store as well.

Retail Wall Displays

DGS Retail offers a wide selection of retail wall displays and shelving systems. We sell kits that enable you to add gondola shelving without needing a gondola unit. Merchandise impulse buys around the perimeter of your store, and maximize sales potential by creating specialized areas in your store with store display fixtures that mount on your walls. Save up on floor space and money with these eye-catching displays.

How Wall Display Shelving Works

Most of our wall display systems are modular kits designed to fit your needs. We have a variety of different styles to work with, from brick slatwall and metal gridwall to industrial pipe and rustic pipe. Our kits come with wall standards, which are uprights you can attach to your walls with the appropriate mounting hardware. From there, you can add different types of shelving, including Lozier gondola shelves, wood slatted shelves, and more. There also various accessories available to kit out the display, including hangrails, faceouts, garment racks, outriggers, and slatwall hooks. All of these can add more products to your display.

Who Benefits from Retail Wall Displays?

Almost any store benefits from using a wall display system from DGS Retail. One critical advantage is freeing up floor space from clutter. That can help with store layouts, and even cut down maintenance costs. C-Stores and liquor stores, among other shops that lack much square footage, will be happy with these displays. But even bigger retailers can use them to maximize overall space usage. Mixing the display shelving with accessories helps further optimize space, creating a layered look with high product capacity.

Retail wall displays also provide stores the ability to create a focal point in the store from which to merchandise impulse buys. Apparel and shoe stores can sell clothing at clearance prices to shoppers, for example. Gift shops for museums can showcase souvenirs for a prestige or new exhibit. Houseware stores can do seasonal sales ahead of important holidays so customers can buy the cookware they need for big meals.

Other Uses for Wall Display Systems

Because customers often look to the perimeter of stores first, retail wall displays can take advantage of the resulting heavy foot traffic to sell the right products to customers. It also helps retailers better showcase the look and feel of their stores, especially when using exposed brick walls. Combining these displays with matching floor fixtures presents the opportunities for branded store-within-a-store scenarios and pop-ups. These displays provide the maximum flexibility in space, look, and merchandising potential.
