Despite the volume of choices,
choosing the perfect display fixture isn’t as daunting a task as it might seem – and neither is creating the display once you know which fixture you want to use.Table display fixtures work well in a variety of retail and other business settings. Like other kinds of display accessories, table displays are available in different sizes, styles, and colors, so it’s easy to find the one (or two!) that will work best with your merchandise and your store’s décor.Check out the three steps listed below to help you get started using table display tools to create merchandise displays.Step One: Choose the Merchandise to DisplayYou can showcase nearly anything on these display fixtures! Consider these ideas:
- Clothing stores can display typical merchandise like folded shirts and pants, as well as seasonal items like gloves, scarves, and hats.
- Shoe stores can create displays of the season’s new footwear.
- Bookstores can display the latest releases
- Toy stores can create displays focused on a particular “theme,” such as the licensed merchandise related to a new movie or cartoon.
- Candy stores can use these display tools to create plastic, acrylic, or glass container display of colorful gumballs and lollipops.
- Ice cream parlors and yogurt shops can create displays of their dry toppings like sprinkles.
- Hotels, motels, and travel- or tourist-related establishments can create displays of local newspapers, magazines, brochures, and pamphlets.
Of course, these are just a few suggestions. There are many more possibilities, depending on what kind of store or other business you manage.Step Two: Decide Where to Situate Your Table Display FixtureGenerally, table display fixtures are designed to be placed on the floor (situating them on top of other fixtures like tables can be not only inconvenient to your customers, but also can be dangerous); therefore, you need to make sure you have enough floor space set aside for the display tool. As you’re determining where you can situate your display, keep in mind that these kinds of display tools are available in different widths, heights, and depths, as well as with either round or square shelves. Step Three: Select Your Table Display FixtureOnce you know what you want to display and where you want to display it, it’s time to choose your table display fixture.Like many other kinds of merchandise display tools, you can find these kinds of display tools with varying number of shelves, round shelves or square shelves, and in different colors such as wood colors “cherry” and “maple.” Aside from the fixture’s size and number of shelves, what makes the fixture perfect for your display will boil down to your personal preference or your store’s décor. NOTE: If you’ve chosen to display merchandise that requires additional display fixtures, be sure to take those fixtures’ sizes into consideration. For example, if you choose to use plastic containers or acrylic bins as your additional display fixtures, make sure you choose sizes that will work with your table display fixture.
