According to Wikipedia, merchandising is any practice which contributes to the sale of products to a retail consumer. At a retail in-store level, merchandising refers to the variety of productsavailable for sale and the display of those products in such a way that it stimulates interest and entices customers to make a purchase. The Food Marketing Institute estimates thatthe average supermarket stocks around 42,000 items.

From our experience, retailers are always looking for a new way to merchandise their department differently to entice their customers to purchase. What better way then to design a shelf that becomes invisible, where the product seems to jump out at you.

AirFlo’s New AirShelfTM Merchandising System:

• Increases Sales: Provides high quality, unique category management for most  bulk foods.

• Maximize Merchandising Space:  Sleek, slim profile may increase your merchandising space by 10-25%. That is one additional shelf row per 4’ section!

"You can definitely see more of the product with this new AirShelf System. The 2' sections allow the department to make a small amount look good, really valuable for the ease of seasonal adjustment. Especially true with the last handful – which is really your profit. This system has a greater flexibility for a 34,000 square foot store like us, to sell that last few without loosing that profit," stated Bruce Nusbaum, Minneapolis area produce specialist. “Overall I am very pleased. I notice the difference when I see my other shelving, and when I am in other stores. The AirShelf is far superior!”
