If there is one thing people can never live without, it is food. Especially after encountering Covid-19, the economy is sluggish and people's purchasing power has declined, but the food they depend on cannot be reduced. That's why grocery stores are a $682 billion industry in the United States. And grocery sales have nearly doubled since the last century. With the further improvement of people's living standards, it is expected to continue to grow in the future. Moreover, the sales growth rate of this industry is much faster than that of other retail industries, and it also provides a lot of jobs for people. You can see the development of Wal-Mart.
Although most of the market is occupied by some large retail grocery stores, people still prefer to shop nearby due to reasons such as road distances, so there is still a lot of room for independent grocery stores to develop. If you're looking to open a modern grocery store, here's an example to give you an idea.
Small Community Grocery Store
Large grocery stores and supermarkets are generally far away from residential areas. Due to the consideration of floor space and traffic flow, daily shopping may not be convenient for nearby neighborhood streets. People basically make centralized purchases once a week. In terms of food, this is nothing, but if you want to eat fresh vegetables and fruits, it is more troublesome.
This small grocery store is a good choice for you to drive nearby. The grocery we designed mainly sells all kinds of snacks. The traditional metal shelves are placed against the wall, and a double-sided display shelf is also placed in the middle to facilitate customers to choose the snacks you sell.
We also made use of the space at both ends of the shelves and designed small shelves. All the shelves in this grocery store use a 5-layer structure, and the A-pillar frame is used. The height between the shelves can be changed according to the products you display, which is more convenient to use. In addition to the main food display area, there is also a cold beverage vending area. Beverage vending machines are placed inside and outside the store so that customers can complete a shopping experience without the need for a clerk, which is convenient and time-saving. The latest automatic cash register is also used in the cashier area, which greatly reduces the labor cost of your grocery store.
In addition to borrowing more convenient machines and equipment to improve efficiency, this grocery store also pays great attention to fashion and beauty. We use acrylic light strips to decorate your store door, and your store logo is also hung on the ceiling in the store, which looks very technical. Of course, if you want to change it to your liking, you can also customize it to your liking in color and style.
Grocery Store With Sitting Area
The second grocery store is obviously larger than the first, and our design is more complex and diverse. But from the grocery store side, you'll feel like it's a small restaurant. Because we divided the whole store into two areas. The left side of the store is a grocery store, and the right side is a coffee bar restaurant design. If you look closely, there is a staircase structure in the middle, and the second floor is a warehouse. We use this as a sorting point to distinguish the spaces on both sides smoothly.
The shelves of the grocery store on the left are no longer made of metal materials, but wood-grain materials of similar colors to the wooden doors in the store. The shelves of wood-grain fireproof boards are environmentally friendly and durable, and can also echo the overall design and decoration of the store. Each shelf is double-sided display style. The three-tiered display allows you to display your products while keeping the top product within easy reach for customers, and the bottom drawer gives you space to store your inventory. The side of the shelf is also designed with a removable shelf, if you are worried about the lack of shelf space, you can install the side shelf or choose not to install it.
Of course, the space on the inner side of the wall cannot be wasted. We have placed many multi-layer wall cabinets. Wall cabinets will not take up too much space in the store, but also allow you to display a lot of products. It is indispensable display furniture in the design and layout of the store. The difference from the general grocery store layout is that the grocery store has only one entrance and exit, so the cashier is also designed to be close to the access area.
In the middle is the isolation belt that separates the left and right sides. In order to make the indoor light enough, we did not use a wall to isolate but chose a transparent glass screen, which allows customers to see the situation on the left and right sides. Make it easy for grocery shoppers to dine at the cafe bar restaurant on the right or let the restaurant on the right pick up some snacks on the left.
Traditional Grocery Store Display
While different from the above two grocery stores, this one is of a more traditional design. The store has designed a display area for various products, and also uses more display stands of different styles, square styles or styles similar to desktops, wall cabinets, freezers, etc. Make the design of the store more diversified, and the products displayed are more diverse.
In addition to the difference in the design of the display cabinets, a lot of indicators are also used on the top to clearly divide each area, so that customers can easily find the products they want to buy, which greatly improves the efficiency.
