Market Insight

Use nearby categories to unlock total fixture space – Think about space alongside eggs

Home baking is a hugely seasonal category – Pancake Day, Mother's Day, Easter, Halloween & Christmas are your peak sales opportunities

Most sugar volume is used in baking, but sweetening accounts for most occasions (such as tea, coffee & cereal)

Shoppers expect and want the fixture to reflect the baking process

Many baking occasions result from a spur of the moment decision

Health conscious shoppers are interested in baking due to having control over ingredients

Cakes

Block by usage occasion

e.g. Block “Mainstream Flours” together and “Bread Making Flours” together on the fixture. This will help shoppers quickly identify where the product they want to purchase is on shelf.

Block by brand provides clarity and helps the shopper find their products through brand recognition. Use brands to signpost sectors as these are most recognised by shoppers on a 'replenishment' mission.
