Brand New Boutique Merchandise

 Monday, May 9th, 2011

Brand New Boutique Merchandise

Our Boutique line of merchandise has been very popular and successful. We now have an exciting new color addition! The Ivory Collection is here! The new color evokes a cool Mediterranean feeling that will look amazing in your store. We are going to take a few moments to highlight the Ivory Collection offerings.

2-Way Rack

Our Ivory 2 Way Rack features push button adjustment that allows for adjusting the height on the rack from 48” to a maximum height of 72”. This is a great feature because it allows all types of merchandise to be displayed from jeans and t-shirts, swimwear to formal gowns. Whenever you display clothing on a 2 Way Rack, it is always helpful to display it at different sight levels. Whenever you get the opportunity to display clothing on a rack you can trick the customer’s eye into wondering throughout the rack. This will keep the customer’s attention on the merchandise and allow them to take in all the merchandise not just one thing.

3-Way Rack

Our Ivory 3 Way Rack Features the same push button adjustment for height however, this rack has a unique element which is the third arm that comes out from the side arching out to display merchandise for an interesting visual presentation. This rack along with the 2 Way Rack and the remaining Ivory Collection have finials that can be added to the tops of the rack to add even more stylish elements to create a unique look that be changed as often as your merchandise. The finials simply snap into place after you remove the standard square finial from the existing rack.

36” Round Rack

Our Ivory 36” Round Rack offers push button height adjustment from 48-72”.  The round rack also has the option of adding locking or non-locking casters allowing for easy mobility. The round rack can display a lot of merchandise which makes it ideal for sale promotions and clearance. The rack can hold up to 144 garments assuming the garments take up to 1” of space to hang. The legs also collapse into each other for easy storage. The rack also comes standard with 4 small metal risers. The risers allow for the rack to accept round toppers. The toppers allow for the rack to add additional display pieces and merchandise that can further increase sales.

We will continue to highlight additional pieces of the Boutique Ivory Collection later in the week. In the mean time, please visit us on Facebook and Twitter for member exclusives, tips and trends. Drop us a line here on the blog. We love hearing from you.

Mannequin Alternatives

 Sunday, April 3rd, 2011

Mannequin Alternatives

There are all sorts of ways that you can display clothing merchandise. Clothing display is one of the most creative endeavors that you can pursue in retail merchandising. A good display can draw attention to your store and bring in new customers. A bad display can simply cause your customers to pass on otherwise good merchandise because it was not shown in its best light.

Today we want to touch on some alternative ways that you can display individual merchandise and some of our products that can help you to achieve that. We want to take you beyond the traditional mannequin and introduce you to some alternatives.

Hook Stand

Hook Stands are a wonderful way to highlight a single article of clothing. The hook stand features an adjustable upright arm that extends from 18” to 36” in height so you can display a wide range of product. The hook stand is not just for clothing. This is a great item for handbags and other fashion accessories as well.

Tubular Ladder Mannequin

The tubular ladder mannequin has been a staple in our inventory for years now. It makes sense to have some displayers around and this is no exception. What is unique about this item is that it is very lightweight and easy to assemble. Additional features include metal hooks to suspend it.

If displaying t-shirts, sweatshirts or other active wear is your business, this display can be changed daily. It is very easy to assemble and disassemble giving your retail space a fresh look all the time.

We will continue this series later in the week. In the mean time, please keep the creativity going! As always, check in with us for the latest on merchandise and retail information. Visit us on Facebook and Twitter for updates, sneak peaks and member exclusives. We appreciate your feedback and your comments.

Cobblestone and Raw Steel Salesman Racks

 Tuesday, March 15th, 2011

Throughout the week we have been talking about hangrail racks that help you go the distance while saving floor space. We want to conclude the series with these next two racks

Cobblestone and Raw Steel Boutique Salesman Racks

I couldn’t conclude the series without bringing in the Boutique line of salesman racks. Our Boutique line has become a very popular line and the two different color finishes include a complete set of racks that compliment them. Both the Cobblestone and the Raw Steel Boutique racks have wonderful features that I just had to highlight.

Cobblestone Salesman Rack

The Cobblestone Salesman Rack features a hand painted copper finish that includes a decorative scroll design on top of the rack and at the bottom of the upright bars. This rack has a maximum height of 66” for the hangrail bar.  Additional features include casters and adjustability in the height from 48” to 66”. The weight capacity of this rack is 200 lbs.  This rack is a wonderful choice to highlight clothing that includes cool colors and sophisticated styling.

Raw Steel Salesman Rack

The Raw Steel Salesman Rack includes similar features a brushed silver finish and exhibits a clean linear look. This rack and the Cobblestone are often confused and I want to point out that the Raw Steel rack does not include the decorative scroll pattern at the top. The top of the Raw Steel rack is just a simple straight bar. Additional features include casters and adjustability in the height from 48” to 72”. The weight capacity of this rack is 220 lbs. This rack has such a great industrial look that really lends itself well to all sorts of styling from hip contemporary to laid back casual.

Thanks for checking in with us for the workhorse series. We are pleased that we can offer you several options for your retail needs. Please do not hesitate to let us know what else you would like to see us carry. A number of styles that have been added to our catalog started as customer requests. We want you to know that we do listen and we will continue to do so. Please follow us on Facebook and Twitter.

Heavy Duty Z Trucks

 Friday, March 11th, 2011

Heavy Duty Z Trucks

In continuing with our Workhorse series, we want to highlight two rolling racks that the term workhorse truly applies.

The Heavy Duty Z Truck is a true workhorse for several reasons

1. It can display a large number of clothing

2. It can be easily transported

3. It has a heavy weight capacity

The Heavy Duty “Z” Truck has a 63” hangrail bar and a weight capacity of 350 to 400 lbs. This rack in the past has been used as a storage room rack to hold merchandise before it went out to the sales floor. The “Z” frame design allows the racks to nest for space saving. However, more than ever before we are starting to see these racks appear on the sales floor.  There are many retailers that have taken on an “industrial” look to their sales floor and this rack fits in great with that look. Other features include 4” industrial casters that allow the rack to glide smoothly along the floor with minimal effort.

The Super Heavy Duty “Z” Truck has the same overall features but the main difference is in the weight capacity. With this rack, you are capable of displaying 500 lbs of merchandise at one time on a single rack! That is impressive by any standards. Both racks have optional add on bars that allow them to hang two levels of merchandise at the same time.  Keep in mind that the Heavy Duty Z Truck has an orange base and the Super Heavy Duty Z Truck has a blue base. Less than 6 square feet of sales floor space would be needed for this rack and when it is in use, it really packs a punch.

We will conclude our Workhorse series with one last grouping. This next group has its “shiny shoes” on and I know you will love them too.  As always please visit us on Facebook and Twitter to sign up for member exclusives, sneak peaks and more! Thank you for visiting us and if you have any questions, please let us know. We love hearing from you.
