Retailer: Walmart
Location: Mesa, AZ

The holiday season sparks displays that tout beverages as gifts, and this pole topper is no exception. Paul Masson's oak-barrel aged brandies tie in with a display that highlights the barrel.

• Dimensional, round visuals seem to float atop cases of product.
• Oversize replicas of the Grande Amber aged bottles and a half barrel take shape via vacuum forming.

Design Data

• Producer: The Display Connection Inc., Moonachie, N.J.
• Client: Constellation Brands, Canandaigua, N.Y.

The client wanted to "drive" the sales of 24-oz. cans of Miller Lite in convenience stores with this display, which associates the Miller Lite brand with racing and NASCAR.

• Product as replica. The six-pack of cans stand in for a car's pistons.
• A take-away cooler calls for six cans, increasing sales of cans that are normally sold individually. Water-resistant corrugated board makes up the take-away cooler.
• Small footprint. The display holds 66 cans, 10 folded coolers and one sample cooler.
