Retail Merchandising and Displays
Some say a picture is worth a thousand words. We’d say a retail display is worth a thousand ads. When properly delivered, retail displays draw in new customers and boost your brand recognition. To achieve that outcome, you’ll need the right design that beautifully represents the essence of your brand and grabs the shoppers’ attention. You’ll also need a partner you can trust to manufacture, kit, and deliver your retail displays. Meyers has been designing and manufacturing award-winning Point of Purchase (POP) displays for decades. Our clients include the world’s leading brands and retailers who come to us to create inspiring merchandising solutions, custom POP displays, retail signage, labels and more.

Ulta
Paris Presents
This holiday endcap developed by Meyers for Ulta Paris Presents highlighted Ulta’s EcoTools and Real Techniques brands during peak gift giving season. An instruction sheet for setting up the display was provided to retailers, who could easily refill the displays as needed. Cost effective and convenient, the display boosted in-store sales of these products by 30 percent.

Kohls
Disney Jumping Beans
Disney is a strong brand that deserves a dynamic presence. That’s just what Meyers created to draw attention to the Disney Jumping Beans kids clothing line in 1,146 Kohl’s stores around the country. Router cut from blue, red and orange OnColor Edgeglo Bright Edge Transparence Colors and frosted acrylic, the displays appeared to leap from the aisles, attracting customers to this fun, easy to pair and easy to wear clothing line.
Design, Countertop Display
Case Study
Saucony
Reflex Series
To help launch its Reflex Series of running shoes, Saucony needed a cost effective, eye catching countertop display. Meyers designed an innovative yet inexpensive structure that featured die cuts, lights and the EdgeGlo acrylic shelf to capture the new shoe’s brand essence, reflectivity. For added flair, the acrylic shelf featured a laser image of the Saucony logo.
Design, Semi-Permanent Display
Case study
Lego®
Traveling Fun Kit
Used at in-store events at 25 locations, the Lego standee was part of a Travelling Fun Kit. It was easy to assemble and take down so that merchandisers could set it up quickly and was one of several items packed into a custom-manufactured carrying case that resembled a suitcase. The other items, when assembled, created a “construction site” where children could build with Lego sets.
In addition, the clipboard on each display held a custom frame containing 8.5 x 11″ flyers. The flyers were custom printed at each store and included specific details of the event to be held at each location.

FAQs
Custom retail displays elevate the featured products or special campaigns by capturing shoppers’ attention. Product displays drive immediate purchasing decisions, boost brand awareness, and reinforce your brand promises by occupying spaces that are larger than your products and more unique than the typical product-on-shelf setup. Similarly, retail displays draw attention to special campaigns by bringing decorations into the foreground and often creating larger-than-life experiences.
The standard brand guidelines on colors, even when well defined with specific PMS colors, generally won’t be enough to ensure a perfect match. Different materials or even finishes (gloss vs matte) can make the exact same color appear slightly different. The best possible way to confront this issue is by comparing finished packaging and displays directly next to each other under a variety of lighting conditions, then making changes as needed to manufacture the perfect match. Few POP manufacturers can offer this as displays and packaging are typically produced at separate locations on very tight timelines, leaving little to no room for correction mid-run. Meyers solves this problem by manufacturing labels, packaging and displays at a single plant with coordinated production schedules.
