These are some guidelines for a good retail design when you are setting up your shelving. You should place your best selling items and higher cost items at eye level, which is a hot spot.
For some of the products, you will receive special incentives from the product companies when you placed their products in certain shelves. When there are different sizes of the same product, they should be lined up biggest to smallest left to right. This is due to the fact that people’s eyes naturally go to the left first since we read left to right.
By placing your larger items on the left you are more likely to have customers seize the bigger size, which makes you more money. Unuse space should be reduced because it wastes precious space in your business and does not look good.
The space between your shelves should be just big enough to comfortably allow people to remove the products. You should also ensure that your shelves are well stocked. If you have plenty of stock on hand you create confidence in the product and create more of a visual impact.
