How you ever entered a shop and wondered just how they created such a striking layout? This is how new shop fittings can inspire new trends and bring success to the door of any commercial outlet or retail shop. The décor and design in a shop can have a direct impact on the rate of sales. This is not a task that you should carry out yourself. You need to get people expert in shop fittings to advise you and carry out the project. However there are some steps you can take to make the planning process easier:

Design

Always start by planning the layout. This will save on time and money and avoid your shop spec being cramped and poorly organised. If you are renovating an existing space you will know your needs well. Make sure you communicate this experience to the shop fitters so that the design is relevant to your needs. You must take considerable time over measuring the space. If you get this wrong, you will head into trouble straightaway. You want to avoid dead areas, opportunities for theft and enable fast and easy stocking.

Time

Make sure you understand how long the process will take. This way you can plan properly for the opening day and have time to advertise and provide customers with an exact opening day.

Budget

Make sure you get an accurate quotation so that there are no hidden surprises later on.

Quality

Shop fittings and any other fixtures such as mannequins should be of a high quality. If you want to create an ambience of style and elegance you want good quality materials and excellent workmanship.

Communication

You should always keep regular contact with the project manager of your shop fittings.
