Aisle Realignment

Essential for creating a safe environment for customers: Aisle realignment in stores to improve social distancing.
A study by ICSC reports that 65% of shoppers are attempting to reduce contact with others while in stores while 48% are more comfortable when stores have implemented social distancing measures. To promote customer safety and confidence, retailers must adhere to these protective measures.

To increase shopping space, realign gondola shelving and widen aisles. Analyze customer traffic flow and identify bottlenecks. Design a new floor plan to create six-foot spacing between shoppers. Wholesale Store Fixture team can mobilize displays and fixtures by "skating" them into new positions, with heavy-duty casters allowing the entire run to be moved with few installers.

Our experienced team of fixture installation specialists can quickly and efficiently realign your aisles, allowing shoppers to navigate your store with greater ease and comfort.

• Finding enough space to move existing gondolas
• The labor costs associated with relocating them
• The disruption to customers

It is best to plan for the realignment to take place at night when the store is closed.
