Gridwall Panels offer Retailers Versatility and Diversity

December 18, 2006 (PRLEAP.COM) Business News
ST. LOUIS, MO – As products become more diversified and retailers carry a wider variety of goods, the need for versatility in retail product displays has become apparent. Even specialty retailers like toy and hardware stores carry products of all shapes and sizes which demand their own unique display.

Many retailers turn to gridwall panels to meet the demands of a diverse inventory. Gridwall panels are, by design, able to accommodate a vide variety of products simultaneously.

“A very real challenge for many retailers is to provide a diverse product line, while still maintaining some kind of order,” Nu-Era’s Chris Weis said. “Gridwall panels are one option that allows them a little bit of flexibility in that respect.”

Weis is the marketing and eCommerce director at Nu-Era, a St. Louis-based company that provides fixtures and supplies for retailers nationwide. The company sells a variety of product display solutions, including gridwall panels.

Gridwall panels by themselves of course won’t do the trick. It’s the accessories that give them function. Gridwall systems accommodate an assortment of various hooks and hangers to allow everything form T-shirt displays to temporary shelving.

According to Weis, retailers should develop a plan before making the leap to purchase and install gridwall displays. Identify a problem that you’re hoping to address with this change. Then determine the wall solution and accessories that will accomplish the change.

“Careful planning and implementation is the key to getting the most out of a new gridwall panel display,” Weis said. “Like all successful endeavors in the retail industry, the outcome will largely be a reflection of the time and energy invested.”
