What kind of shelving and display equipment is needed for a supermarket or retail store of over 1,000 square meters?

1. Single-sided shelving — Placed against walls for displaying small, lightweight items; adjustable shelf heights.

2. Double-sided shelving (gondola units) — Located in the center of the sales floor; accessible from both sides; the primary shelving type in supermarkets.

3. Promotional displays / floor stacks — Positioned in main aisles or at entrances for discounted, high-demand items; create strong visual impact.

4. Fresh produce shelving — Fruit and vegetable racks (angled shelves), refrigerated cabinets, meat cases, and ice tables; combine preservation with product display.

5. Checkout counter racks — Located near the checkout area for items like gum and batteries; capture "last-meter" purchasing opportunities.

6. Hooks / pegboards / hanging baskets — For accessories, bagged goods, and small items; maximize space utilization.
