COMMON STORE FIXTURES<br />

Now you know more about how product is categorized and<br />

segmented, and it’s time to think about actually placing it on the shelf.<br />

Or is it a case? Or a go-go? A table? What exactly does the product<br />

go on? That depends on what type of store you’re in, but here’s a quick<br />

run-down of the mostcommon types of store fixtures.<br />

UPPER CASE/WALL BAY: a unit that is affixed to the wall or a stand-alone<br />

unit. This case may be wide or narrow and may use slats, pegs, metal nose<br />

pegs, or shelves.<br />

LOWER CASE: a case or drawers that are below an upper/wall bay. This<br />

unit may be wide or narrow and have stair steps or shelves.<br />

WINDOW/GO-GO: a fixture that is placed in the window of your store.<br />

FLOOR UNIT: a unit that is not affixed to a wall and stands alone in the middle<br />

of your floor. This may also be used as a focus unit if it is located at the front<br />

entrance of your store.<br />

KIOSK UNIT: a glass unit with two or three glass shelves.<br />

ACCESSORY DISPLAY: a unit, spinner, go-go fixture, or wall panels<br />

that display sun accessories.<br />
