Brands: VariousRetail partner: AlbertsonsDisplay manufacturer: Applied Merchandising ConceptsThis winter/summer permanent endcap fixture from Applied Merchandising Concepts replaced the temporary corrugate units that were used for many years at Albertsons. Applied Merchandising works with Albertsons to invoice brands directly based on their cost fair share (provided by the retailer). The permanent racks get updated at the store level (with the help of SAS Retail Services). The graphics are printed on both sides so that they can be flipped over simply for the next season. Applied Merchandising says the program’s four-year life has passed on tremendous savings to the brands and is more eco-friendly than using corrugate that is trashed each season.Brand: EcoXGearDisplay manufacturer: Innovative Marketing SolutionsThis endcap display for EcoXGear’s portable audio products embodies the outdoors while targeting glampers, sports enthusiasts and outdoor adventurers.
