The In-store Environment  

An IGD report revealing how to inspire and engage shoppers in store

 

It is a commonly held view that the majority of purchase decisions are made at the point of purchase, and recent behavioural research suggests that shoppers ignore at least one third of what they encounter in the retail environment. As a result, products must break through the noise that surrounds them on fixture in order to work their way into a shopper’s evoked mindset. Once there, the product must address a shopper’s primary need and differentiate itself from it’s competitors.

So do shoppers have their own in-store satellite navigation systems? With store layout such a key part of the supermarket experience, do we really understand the way shoppers shop?  Using in-depth customer research, IGD's The In-Store Environment report will answer these questions and much more.
