Only 45 percent of all purchase decisions in food retailing are specifically planned by the customer. More than half of all purchases are influenced through advertising at point of sale. This is the result of a study by the Point of Purchase Advertising International (POPAI) association.
Even consumers who bring a prepared shopping list can be positively influenced by PoS advertising.
The new Wanzl Promobox 2 coin deposit system, which is integrated into the shopping trolley handle, promotes purchase decisions because the Promobox and its advertising surfaces are always in the customer's field of view.
Targeted advertising at PoS
Promobox 2 has two generous advertising surfaces – one for alternating offers
and another for the market logo. The advertising inlay for special offers and promotions by the market can be replaced quickly and easily within 15 seconds. This means that customers can always be kept informed of changing product promotions and offers up-to-the-minute at minimal cost. The self-adhesive market logo integrated into the front surface promotes your company's CI concept, as well as providing unique identification of ownership.
Ready for marketing activities
Every Promobox 2 has a special compartment for integrating transponders and other RFID components which can be used to perform customer frequency counts, activate video advertising and undertake trolley run studies.
Integrated coin deposit system
The Promobox 2 is also a reliable and proven coin deposit system for shopping trolleys, integrated into the ergonomic handle.
Made from weather-resistant, shockproof and breakproof plastic, the Promobox 2 supports an organised trolley recirculation and supply system that saves on costs and staff. Both new trolleys and models already in use – minimum trolley volume 100 litres – can be fitted with the Promobox 2.

| Four years ago Wanzl introduced its new plastic shopping trolley [more] |
.jpg)
 |
Four years ago Wanzl introduced its new plastic shopping trolley, Tango. Retailers around the world are delighted with the benefits of this new plastic model and orders have been growing constantly. Now, with the rise in average shopping volumes of European consumers, Wanzl is launching another, bigger Tango model, with a 220-litre basket.
RFID-compatible
Just like the 160-litre version, the new Tango combines top quality with lots of attractive features. The 220-litre Tango is also an effective tool in combating stock losses, as it enables almost 100% identification of EAS labels – thanks to its all-plastic basket, without any metal reinforcement. The new model is also fully ready for tomorrow´s RFID technology.
Light and quiet
Another advantage of the Tango 220 is its low weight. It is an average of 8 kilograms lighter than a conventional wire trolley, because the basket, basket flap and handle unit are made entirely of plastic. Even when fully laden the Tango 220 is easy to push and steer, and it´s nice and quiet. In addition, the new model also meets the stringent product safety requirements of the European standard DIN EN 1919.
Lots of options
Wanzl is offering the Tango in two styles – with a curved base and without a platform (to reduce theft), and a classic model fitted as standard with a pull-out crate rack. In both models the trolley has the same proven stability and quality of the classic wire trolleys. Wanzl supplies the Tango 220 as standard with a child´s seat, which can double as an extra shelf for shopping. A wide range of accessories are available for the Tango. Also, Wanzl is supplying the new stylish Tango 220 in a choice of attractive colours and colour combinations, to fit in with the individual store´s corporate identity concept.

According to the latest survey by the British Centre of Retail Research (CCR) German stores are losing out to the tune of 5.65 billion euros per year through shoplifting. Across Europe the loss amounts to a huge 29 billion euros. The only way stores can combat this problem is to have an effective system of theft-prevention in place. Wanzl has now come up with a new-style solution for the retail trade – a space-divider system called Railix. This ingenious new system combines effective theft-prevention with good looks and easy assembly.
Effective against shoplifting
The individual elements in the Railix system are slotted together via plastic profiles to create a gap-free closure. No goods can be passed through these gaps, which makes Railix an effective tool in reducing shoplifting. At the same time the windproof panels protect the employees from draughts and thereby help reduce loss of working time through illness.
Protecting value
An important component in the Railix system are the base units which finish level with the floor. This protects the space-dividers against damage occurring from trolleys being pushed against them, for example. Also this feature means they are easy to clean, by hand or by machine.
Ultimate flexibility
The Railix space-divider panels offer tremendous scope for free combination, to suit a wide range of applications. Thanks to the corner units which can be fitted steplessly at angles between 90 to 270°, it´s possible to put together all kinds of variations, and to make changes as required. Railix is available in a wide choice of materials, for example wire glass, acrylic glass, wood or plastic. A range of surface finishes for the bases open up even more design scope. |

Great for older people and single households
Already one in five Germans is older than 60, and by the year 2030 one in three will have reached this age. So far many companies, and in particular the retail trade, have neglected the needs of this target group, or at least have not sufficiently catered for them. These were some of the findings in a recent survey, called 'Perfect Agers 2010 – Pensioners at the POS', conducted by the Institute or Retail Research of the University of Cologne, in cooperation with the communication firm BBDO Germany. Wanzl is one company that responded early on to this trend, by offering a special 'Light' shopping trolley alongside its standard trolleys with basket capacities between 130 and 180 litres. The 'Light' shopper holds 70 litres, and is specially designed to suit the needs of the 50+ generation of customers.
The 50+ generation – Happy shoppers
This versatile model is easy to push and highly manoeuvrable, and thanks to its shallow basket, loading is simple. These features make the 'Light' shopping trolley ideal for customers just buying in a few items in between the big weekly shop. Certainly the 50+ generation is a very attractive group of the population for the retail trade. They have high spending power*, with 19 million euros each month being spent on goods and services. Also they take more time over their shopping. They value service more, and when a store gets it right, it finds that the over 50s will remain faithful customers for a long time.
'Light' advantages for smaller households
Another trend that is also contributing to changes in shopping habits is the constantly growing number of single-person or small households in Germany and across Europe (acc. to the Federal Statistical Office of Germany and Eurostat). These households buy less, because they need less day-to-day, but they go shopping more frequently. Increasingly they prefer fresh produce, because they know it´s important to have a healthy diet, and because they are concerned about food scandals. Shops that offer Wanzl´s 'Light' shopping trolley alongside their standard models are responding to these changing shopping habits. In the United Kingdom, where great emphasis is placed on customer service, Wanzl´s 'little shopper' is already a familiar sight in stores. But the 'Light' shopping trolley has another advantage, too – because it is small and convenient to use, it encourages people not to use their own bags as they go round the store. The sales personnel can then see the goods easily in the basket. Wanzl´s 'Light' trolley thus adds up to an effective way of helping to reduce stock losses that occur through theft.

| Good ideas always come back into fashion: back in 1947, Wanzl developed the "Cona" shopping trolley with two detachable baskets. The new trolley was ideally suited to the limited sales spaces and minimal display room of the emerging self-service trade in Germany. Exactly 60 years later, Wanzl now presents its new "Pick-up" trolley, which combines the advantages of the "Cona" model with the requirements of modern shopping. The "Pick-up" is the optimal aid for a small shopping trip, is ideal for smaller stores in town centres and is an additional alternative for shops that already use larger shopping trolleys. The handy and stackable "Pick-up" scores points with customers due to its versatility: the trolley can be equipped with two stable, attractive "GT26" shopping baskets and also provides room for a PET bottle container. Alternatively, the model can also hold one basket and one drinks crate. In addition, customers have the option of just grabbing the basket: its concave shape and carry handle with specially moulded grip surface make for comfortable shopping. Wanzl supplies the "GT26" basket in various contemporary colours, and advertising surfaces can be included on request. |

| Wanzl Services – Six Modules for Higher Sales [more] |
|
Customers value cleanliness and working self-service systems in-store. According to the "Discount 2006" study, which highlighted emerging trends in retail commerce and was carried out by the corporate consulting firm bbw Marketing, the importance of service, competent advice and attentiveness will rise over the next ten years. The six new service modules from "Wanzl Services" support this trend: They guarantee uninterrupted operation of the valuable, long-lasting self-service systems from Wanzl for the entire life cycle of the product, even in frequent daily use. The new service modules also offer regular technical maintenance with the skill and expertise of the manufacturer. They prevent problems with product liability and maintain the value of investments in the long term. The resulting increase in customer satisfaction can lead to significantly higher sales for the store.
The "Install" service module includes installation services for customer guidance systems, trolley shelters and shopping trolley refits; the "Repair" module offers
repair services for self-service systems; and the "Parts" service ensure the use of
original Wanzl spare parts, preserving the full three-year warranty.
With the "Clean" service, Wanzl provides a cleaning service for shopping and transport trolleys that does not damage their surfaces and is environmentally friendly.
Depending on the number of trolleys, they are steam-cleaned manually or using
the Wanzl mobile washer, which cleans up to 1,200 shopping trolleys immaculately and hygienically to a consistent quality using sterile water. The specially developed cleaning agent we use, "Swip", is certified and combines environmental safety with proven food hygiene. Customers appreciate the cleanliness, and the store also profits by gaining the edge on the competition and preserving the value of the shopping trolleys long-term. Our solid service network ensure the presence of an "installer on site" for the four "Install", "Repair", "Parts" and "Clean" services. Wanzl also offers the two modules "Concept" and "Finance" as an additional service. The "Concept" service module includes consulting and planning services for shopping trolley logistics and for optimal positioning of customer guidance systems and trolley shelters. The "Finance" service provides companies with individual leasing options for self-service systems, allowing them to profit from greater flexibility and liquidity. The individual service modules can be selected and grouped in any combination. In addition, Wanzl offers several tailor-made service packages.
Greater customer satisfaction with the new "Wanzl Services".

Automatic security at check-outs
Wanzl´s new check-out barrier, called 'automatic', is a unique new product featuring a brand new idea – it is the world´s first check-out barrier that automatically locks straight from the till. The check-out PC directly controls the check-out barrier, sending an electrical impulse to lock it as soon as the till is closed down. Unstaffed tills are thus always properly secured and not dependent on a member of staff remembering to lock the barrier. Once locked, the customers can no longer pass through with unpaid goods. This new automatic lock increases security in the store and helps reduce stock losses. For an amazing one in every 200 shopping trolleys passes through the check-out with unpaid goods, according to a recent survey of stock losses by the EuroHandelsinstitut (EHI) in cooperation with the German retailers´ federation, the Hauptverband des Deutschen Einzelhandels (HDE). In total stock losses in German stores amount to 4.1 billion euros per year. With Wanzl´s 'automatic' locking check-out barrier, the service personnel also has the option of locking the barrier manually, via an operating panel. To open it again, the member of staff uses a special key. Wanzl supplies 'automatic' in a range of styles – for integration in the check-out table, in space dividers or as a floor-standing model.

| New presentation systems Cube and Paletti [more] |
 |
Tough competition forces retailers to modernise and modify their shop interiors and points of sale. An effective goods presentation system is a major element contributing to the attractiveness of products, encouraging customers to spend their money. At the same time shopkeepers are under tremendous price pressure. These are the results of the "Shop-Monitor 2004+" study run by the international retail network EHI-EuroHandelsinstitut. Wanzl Metallwarenfabrik provides solutions to all these problems with their new goods presentation systems CUBE and PALETTi. The systems are multifunctional and open up new sales perspectives, and both ranges also underline the individuality of store branding and corporate identity in the food and non-food sectors.
CUBE – truly customised
CUBE is of modular design and can be adapted to suit all shop layouts and sizes, accommodates a wide range of products and features a number of different functions. The triangular and rectangular components can be combined to table groups or stacked, extended, combined and recombined to create displays of varying dimensions. With this high degree of flexibility CUBE is an extraordinarily economical presentation system which meets all display requirements with maximum versatility . Markets can also choose from a variety of individual side sections of wire or acrylic glass, bases with various surfaces and printable front panels. These features, combined with all-round aluminium profiles, make CUBE a modern, clear-cut and attractive option for retail outlets. The system's design ensures excellent accessibility to goods from all sides and a clear view of the displayed goods. Wanzl also supplies mobile versions upon request.
PALETTi – tons of options - low price
PALETTi, the second Wanzl innovation, is the right system for markets looking for an effective and inexpensive system for goods presentation. PALETTi is a series of robust and variable wire elements which are combined and placed on the top of a euro pallet. An additional pallet panel trim rounds off the look of the new unit perfectly. PALLETi can accommodate large quantities, and with its versatile range of accessories such as side-mounted baskets and blister pack hooks it is the perfect presentation system for many products. PALETTi can already be loaded in the storeroom and transported with a lowlift truck to the point of sale. Additional advantages are fast assembly and disassembly and space-saving storage until the unit is once more needed in the saleroom.
