Oh We Do Like To Be Beside The Seaside - Shelving4shops Hits Frinton-on-Sea

I would like to say we all had a day at the beach, but this could not be further from the truth! Shelving4Shops don’t just supply and fit locally, we can also arrange to deliver anywhere in the UK.

When Mr Mabu from Frinton-on-Sea enquired about shop shelving and shop fitting for his new venture in the seaside town we were happy to help. He visited our retail shelving showroom in Leicestershire and we worked together to design a full shop plan. Mr Mabu had some big ideas for his new shop from a complete refit to a coffee and tea room. Using all these ideas and our knowledge of the industry we were able to design a plan which worked for both customer and staff. The design had a good flow and allowed maximum retail space.


The store as a blank canvas - ready for the team to start work 
It was all systems go to get the shop opened for the weekend deadline. So, with drills charged and shelving loaded we set off for a busy day at the beach. On arrival we were met with a blank canvas. The fridges were already in place so the team set to work bringing in the shelving. First, the wall shelving was installed, quickly followed by the gondola shelving. No time for the beach yet… Did someone mention a tea and coffee room?

After a couple of hours we were well on way to completion as our shelving system is very easy to install. The Shelving4Shops custom-made counter was put into place and the shop was finished by the end of the day. After a quick tidy up, all that was left for Mr Mabu to do was to stock his new retail shelving.

The Shelving4Shops team sadly did not get the opportunity to enjoy a drink in Mr Mabu’s new tea and coffee room as it was completed the next day. We wish Mr Mabu the best of luck with his new venture and we will be sure to call in when we have other business in the area.

Shelving4Shops is a national company that can help with the supply of retail shelving and accessories anywhere in the UK. You can visit our showroom in Leicestershire to see our great range of products and discuss your plans.

Shelving4Shops are experts in retail shelving and accessories – come and visit us to see our extensive range of retail shelving, just some of which are listed below:

·     Used shop shelving - We stock a range of used shop shelving and can work with you to source the shelving you need to match your existing stock.
·     Magazine shelving - This specialist unit allows the front of paper goods to be viewed by customers allowing for the selling point of paper goods to be easily seen and accessible.
·     Gondola shelving - A classic popular choice for many stores, gondola shelving can be used to create aisles in the store or used in conjunction with other units to create seamless shelving.
·     Wall shelving - Line the perimeter of your shop floor with wall shelving to maximise your floors space and provide ample room for displaying items.
·     Shopping baskets - A great way to encourage customers to purchase more items is to make it easier for them to hold more items. By having shopping baskets not just at the entrance to your store but also dotted around the aisles you can increase the number of items and impulse purchases a customer will buy.
·     Wire stacking baskets - These are an excellent way to display impulse purchase items or to put sale items in throughout the store. As these are freestanding they can be used to fill that empty space you have that can not be filled with classic shelving bays.
·     Wire dump bins - Similar to stacking baskets these dump bins can be used to store promotional items or impulse purchase items. They are also an excellent way to create a space in front of the checkout for people to queue in so they do not block the rest of the store.
·     Corner shelving - Utilise every inch of floor space you have by using specialist corner shelving to bring life back into an overlooked corner of your store.
·     Peg board shelving and pegs - Not all products can sit well on a flat shelving, our range of pegboard shelving allows you to hang products to ensure they are displayed in the best way possible. All of our bays can be slotted together to ensure a seamless shelving display.


So, if you need gondola bays or wall shelving, shopping baskets or dump bins, please give us a call on 01455 221512 or email us at info@shelving4shops.co.uk. You can also visit our website at www.shelving4shops.co.uk to find out more about the shelving options we have available.
