People usually unconsciously look at the height of 0.7-1.7 meters, the range of up and down is 1 meter, and usually the goods within a range of about 30 degrees from the line of sight are the most attractive.

The good commodity display position in the supermarket refers to the "upper section", that is, the place at the level of the consumer's line of sight, and its height is generally 130 to 145 cm. This section usually displays some recommended products and new products.

This location usually displays some commodities that are larger in size, heavier in weight, fragile, and have low gross profit, but with relatively fast turnover. It can also display some commodities that consumers recognize as brands or commodities with low consumption elasticity.

The "golden section" of the commodity display shelf is the second layer of the shelf, and the height is generally between 80-130 cm. In this section, it is easiest for adult consumers to see or get the goods, and the goods in the area are also the fastest. .

After the goods are put on the shelves, as the goods are continuously sold, the supermarkets should replenish the goods in time, and display them according to the principle of first-in, first-out according to the production date of the goods. (For supermarket design, please search Wanwei Design)

Commodity display should first take out the original products on the shelf, and then put in the supplementary new products, and place the products with the previous production date and batch at the front end of the sales to ensure the normal circulation of the products and maintain the relatively good shelf life of the products as a whole. Reduce inventory, if you do not pay attention to the principle of first-in, first-out, it will often lead to a backlog of goods, an increase in the number of goods in the near-expiration period, and an increase in the loss of goods.

In addition to keeping the product itself clean during replenishment, damaged, defective and expired products must be replaced at any time. If there are unsalable products, you should find a way to deal with them, and you should not let them get dusty and damage the brand image.

Related Display Principles

Commodity-related display is to display commodities of different categories but complementary in terms of utility, or to display commodities that are related to the main commodity around the main commodity. Related products should be displayed on both sides of the aisle, or on different groups of shelves in the same aisle, in the same direction, and on the same side, and should not be displayed on both sides of the same set of double-sided shelves.

The purpose of related display is to promote the mutual sales of commodities, and use the complementarity between commodities to guide consumers to buy commodity B or commodity C displayed next to them after purchasing commodity A, so as to guide consumers to purchase the whole set of commodities instead of Single purchase.

Essentially, the related display of products is based on the accurate grasp of consumers' consumption habits and consumer psychology, which increases the overall display activity and diversity of the store, and virtually guides consumers to shop for more products. The root cause of the widespread use of related displays in supermarkets.

Full shelf display principle

Commodity display should reflect the principle of the sense of quantity, and it is necessary to shape the richness of supermarket commodity display. The full shelf display of commodities will win better sales benefits for supermarkets to a certain extent.

According to a survey report of a supermarket chain in the United States, the sales volume of supermarkets with more abundant displays and full display of goods can be increased by 14%-130% according to different types of goods compared with supermarkets with less than full display. twenty four%.

The full shelf display can highlight the sense of quantity of goods, make the display of goods more plump and orderly, and can give consumers an intuitive impression of rich and complete varieties of goods, prompting consumers to have a psychological feeling of sufficient choice, thereby deepening consumers' perception of supermarkets It can stimulate consumers' shopping desire while improving the storage capacity of shelves and reducing inventory.

On the contrary, it is easy to mislead consumers when the goods are too empty, so that consumers will think that the supermarket products are too single, and cannot give consumers more shopping choices. Naturally, people will not patronize the supermarket again.

Full shelf display regulations:

First, each grid of supermarket display shelves generally needs to display at least three commodity varieties. (At present, the length of domestic shelves is generally 1.0 to 1.2 meters) The display of best-selling products can be less than three varieties to ensure their sense of volume;

Second, according to the supermarket business area, the average display volume of commodities in each square meter should reach 11-12 varieties.
