Retail business owners have always put a lot of thought into the quality of the products they sell and the services they offer, but in many cases, the retail spaces themselves require the design, creativity and knowledge of an expert construction team. The reality is, the design and layout of your retail space can have a huge impact on the success of your business. We outlined a few of the benefits and features to consider if you’re interested in renovating your storefront to get the most out of your space.
Comfortable Aisle
While it’s only natural to want to maximize the amount of merchandise displayed, it’s important not to overwhelm your customers. If you’re renovating your storefront, take some time to design a floor plan and layout in a way that maximizes aisle space, while still providing enough room to display your products or provide your services. Think about which items are most profitable and allocate ample room for them, but also consider removing items and displays that tend to just take up space.
Decompression Zone
When you are renovating your storefront, there’s much more to consider than interior design, although it is important as well. Studies done on consumer behaviours have shown that stores with an adequate decompression zone are more profitable. A decompression zone is essentially a buffer zone with nothing in it at the entrance of your store that allows your customers to decompress and feel comfortable when they first enter your retail space. By incorporating a decompression zone into your storefront design, you can improve sales as well as your customers’ shopping experience.
Beat the Competition
Renovating your storefront is an excellent opportunity to take stock of what your competitors are doing right and wrong, and implement those observations into your design. You can visit the locations yourself or consult with shoppers who frequent those locations and mirror the things that they like and improve upon the things they dislike. Renovating your retail space also gives you the chance to capitalize on consumers’ curiosity. Once you reopen, many people will come to the storefront just to see what’s changed. So, make sure you implement changes that will impress them and keep them coming back for more.
