Retailers think very seriously about how we think, what we like, who we are and who we want to be. Since we typically meet retail products for the first time in retail spaces, it\u2019s important for retailers to create the right impression. The right store layout will determine product placement, guide customer traffic and denote the ambience of the retail space, so a significant amount of thought is required to making that right impression. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axiumglobal.com\/services\/architecture\/design-support\">Retail building design<\/a> or <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axiumglobal.com\/services\/architecture\/design-support\"><strong>retail space planning<\/strong><\/a> will need the support of high-quality retail drawings, <span>3<\/span>D modelling for stores, retail rendering and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.axiumglobal.com\/services\/architecture\/design-support\">retail construction drawings<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>A variety of considerations will impact the floor plan choice, such as the size and shape of available floor space, the merchandise and even the target customers.<\/p>\n<p>The retail industry is a vast ocean of sectors, and so it helps to segment it into smaller seas based on the type of product, such as food, beverage, tobacco products, personal and houseware, apparel, footwear, accessories, furniture, toys, industrial, automotive, electronic and household appliances, pharmaceuticals, luxury goods and more.<\/p>\n<p>Retail can also be classified according to distribution channels \u2013 hypermarkets and supermarkets, specialty stores, department stores, convenience stores, e-commerce, etc.<\/p>\n<h5>Types of Retail Outlets<\/h5>\n<p><strong>Department Stores\u2013<\/strong> wide range of products under one roof, fulfilling all shopping needs \u2013 a one-stop shop, e.g. Pantaloons<\/p>\n<h5>Products:<\/h5>\n<div class=\"textwidget2222\" style=\"margin-left: 25px; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: -20px;\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-6\">\n<div class=\"textwidget\">\n<ul>\n<li> Electronic appliances\n<li> Apparel <\/li>\n<li> Jewellery <\/li>\n<li> Toiletries <\/li>\n<li> Cosmetics <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-6\">\n<div class=\"textwidget\">\n<ul>\n<li> Footwear <\/li>\n<li> Sportswear <\/li>\n<li> Toys <\/li>\n<li> Books <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Discount Stores\u2013<\/strong> also offer a huge range of products but at a discounted rate, generally of a slightly inferior quality, e.g. Walmart<\/p>\n<p>Products:<\/p>\n<p>Same as department store but cheaper price and quality<\/p>\n<p><strong>Supermarkets\u2013<\/strong> sell food products and household items, properly placed and arranged in specific departments, e.g. Carrefour, Sainsbury\u2019s, CostCo<\/p>\n<h5>Products:<\/h5>\n<div class=\"textwidget2222\" style=\"margin-left: 25px; margin-top: 0px; margin-bottom: -20px;\">\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-6\">\n<div class=\"textwidget\">\n<ul>\n<li>  Bakery items <\/li>\n<li>  Cereals <\/li>\n<li>  Meat products, fish products <\/li>\n<li>  Breads <\/li>\n<li>  Medicines <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<div class=\"col-md-6\">\n<div class=\"textwidget\">\n<ul>\n<li>  Vegetables <\/li>\n<li>  Fruits <\/li>\n<li>  Soft drinks <\/li>\n<li>  Frozen food <\/li>\n<li>  Canned juices <\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/div><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<p><strong>Specialty Stores\u2013<\/strong> specialise in a particular product, its specific range and nothing else, e.g. Reebok stores have Reebok merchandise and nothing else, no other brands<\/p>\n<p><strong>Malls\u2013<\/strong> Many retail stores selling individual types of merchandise at one place, e.g. Mall of America, Mall of the Emirates, etc.<\/p>\n<p>As each subset within the broader retail umbrella has different products, different target customers and different design styles, it\u2019s important to plan meticulously and gather detailed data to create the most profitable store design and use floor layouts that are effective.<\/p>\n<h5>Floor Plan<\/h5>\n<p>When choosing a floor plan type, the retailer must plan the location of the shelves or racks to display the merchandise, the position of the mannequins or the cash counter, etc. Basic retail floor plans are as follows:<\/p>\n<div class=\"row\">\n<div class=\"col-md-9\">\n<p><strong>Grid Floor\/Straight Floor Plan\u2013<\/strong> A grid floor plan, also called a straight layout,  features fixtures and displays parallel to walls.

Different types of retail spaces and retail products can be showcased for optimum results only with in-depth knowledge of these factors. With the use of Building Information Modelling (BIM) becoming more widespread globally in design and build firms, it\u2019s only natural that BIM retail design also catches on. With the right design support, retailers can expect near-flawless, high-quality and cost-effective retail drawings, <span>3<\/span>D modelling for stores, retail rendering and retail construction drawings from experienced and technically well-qualified design support firms, delivered within budget and on time. Retail space planning done right can make all the difference in sales and, ultimately, profits.<\/p>\n<style type=\"text\/css\">\n   .ariticles-details_global_content .textwidgetl ul li::before {
