Endcaps, In-Line Shelving and Floor

Key Benefits• Front-end Super Endcaps, front-end inline endcaps and floor stacks

are ideal for generating impulse buying and increasing visibility of your product

• Our partners can supply their own signage and branding messages and utilize customized endcap headers

In a retail environment, free-standing merchandise racks anchored to the floor are called gondolas; endcaps occur at the both ends of a gondola facing heavy-traffic aisles in the store.

Front-end Super Endcaps are an extremely desirable location due to the large amount of floor-traffic passing by them in the front of the store. Our partners can purchase Front-end Super Endcaps for one month intervals

Floor Stacks are boxes of products stacked on top of each other to form a square or rectangle of merchandise in an aisle or other high traffic area.

• Increased visibility • Improved brand awareness • Controlled messages

Front-end Inline Endcaps appear on the interior side of the Front-end section (the front-end section faces the checkouts) and offer prime display space at the front of the store. Our partners can purchase Front-end Inline Endcaps for one month intervals.

POS

Front End Inline Endcaps

In-Line EndcapsThe entire Micro Center store is merchandised by product category. Many categories are candidates for “In-line” endcaps – that is, endcap merchandising inside the aisle where the category is positioned. Select vendor partners with several SKUs in a category can invest to place their products in preferred positions. This branded grouping and positioning right at the point of purchase can generate significant ROI.
