When we talk about industrialization it’s all about mechanization. Certainly it is these tools that boost up industrial management. Industrial management is now a great subject that supports quality assurance as well. Now focus is only on how to maintain product safety, goods are manufactured on large scale so its take time to be sold, so here is a problem how to safe things for a long time period, this thing give rise to industrial shelving, now the goods can be kept and preserve for a long period of time without any fear of damage. So that management can easily place the things into warehouse.

Industrial racking increase storage capacity:
Most of the goods manufactured are in bulk form so the Industrial racking where products are placed, are not like normal shelving which we used at home as well as used at commercial spots. These shelves are used to keep units in stock and for the quick ship locations nationwide so easily placed in warehouse. Moreover on industrial shelves you can afford extra storage because these are made of solid mettles. The shelves used in industry for storage are strong, solid, and simple in design and shape and available in simple colors.

Benefits of industrial shelving’s:

Industrial racking is one of the best storage equipment that the industry ever experienced. Most of the industrial shelving consists of palette racks, storage cabinets and work bench. Well, for those who believe in complete storage systems, nothing could satisfy more than these shelving, as it does not cover the overall space, it requires only minimum space and you can store tons of goods in just single industrial shelving. There are so many industrial shelving available in custom design and standards in market and we can have big or small according to our planning and designing needs. It is the best tool for moving the manufactured goods from one unit to another in the manufacturing unit. To enhance the storage capacity of your warehouse, you can find the Warehouse racking of your own choice, if you are intended to increase the storage capacity or having less space, then exploit this storage trait and get the maximum benefit out of it.

Industrial shelves have removed all dangers faced by manufacturing concern:

Undoubtedly, industrial shelves have made the manufacturing units independent in storage. Now with product management they can store their things for a long period of time, no breakage no damage, only the safety of manufactured goods is assured.

From go-down to warehouses


Those were the days when people store the products in go-down with no special arrangements to keep things safe. These go-down was built of straw and husk mixed with soil, to keep the perishable things safe for a long time. If we look at the history of warehouse, the first warehouse was built in the age of Alexander the Great; he has built the warehouse to secure the artifacts he has collected from his expeditions around the world. So this was the short earlier history when life is not so much complicated, while the demand and supply is not at boom.

The solution of storage is industrial shelving

 Industrial revolution came in the seventieth century, when supply of the product increased with the increase in demand. The big problem in large scale production is only one, how to arrange the things and how to preserve the things, the manufactured products cannot be placed only on the floor, so the need is the mother of the invention. It was the time when product management is developed in industrial environment so the Industrial Shelving is designed keeping in mind the industrial needs. The shelving is made of steel that can bear the weight of industrial goods. The main objective of designing these shelves is to transfer the things from one corner to another easily. These shelves are reliable as it is made of quality material.

Benefits of industrial shelves
 
The Industrial racking has made it possible to manage large scale production in a proper manner. Here is no fear of any damage of the product when the products are assorted in industrial racking. It’s only because of this storage facility that the large industrial concern can manufacture the products on large scale and keep it in stock for a long time. If I say that warehouse is the need of large industrial concern it’s not at all wrong. Industry is now flourishing and surviving only for one reason because it has dealt with product storage issues. So we can see big warehouse of market biggies. Product assortment is manged by store keepers as well as machinery is used to place the product on third or fourth storey of industrial shelves. Things can easily be moved and transferred from one place to another. Thus these shelves have given the facility of portability and mobility of the products in and out of the factory. These warehouse shelving has changed the entire system of storage.

Warehouse and the threat of hoarding

Many people do not consider that warehouse shelving is important, I agree with them. Industrial shelvesare important only for the large concern which can maintain large warehouses with its large scale production. Well, with the increase in demand I suppose industrial shelving is necessary for large, medium and small manufacturing unit. It has advantages and no disadvantages. Things are kept safe for a long time no damage is occurred. Moreover if proper environment is provided things will never get perished. So the stock of the things always gets ready to be released in the market. Industrial shelving is necessary to deal with the demand of the good. The allegations that are charged to challenge the importance of the warehouse like hoarding are not inseparable fact. But it happens only in that society where class discrimination is on the top or we can say in capitalist system.

Product placement:
 
Now a day focus is on capacity, how many things can be stored in industrial shelves of the store? Storage maximization is the key concept that has given uplift to metal storage racks designing. These super cool storage racks not only can provide space to so many brands and products. But the arrangement of the product is done in such a way that it also enhances the visibility of the products. The products are placed in a manner that it quickly catches the eye of the customers. Product arrangement is the main technique that converts a store into a super store. So product placement can attract or repel the customers. While designing the store layout product placement factor should not be missing out.

Smooth flow:
 
The next factor that is important in store designing is the smooth flow of customers. A store should be design in such a way that the customers can walk here and there easily. Once a customer with shopping trolley has stepped in he should not face any difficulty in dragging his shopping trolley. The walk-ins should be wide enough that a definite crowd of customers can easily walk and can access the products. If the passageways of the store are not wide open then it does not give a good feeling to the customers. So make sure while designing store layout that you are make sure that customer flow will not be disturb in anyway.

Product visibility:
 
While designing a retail store, here are thousands of products that need customer’s attention. So presenting every product before the customer is a million dollar technique and here comes the expertise of store designing. Designer and retailers always focus how they can make products more visible before the customers. So product visibility is the key factor that can increase the turnover of the store. To make different brands visible, a store must have the arrangement of proper lighting. There must be light points above the metal storage shelves so that things could be seen by everyone. Proper light arrangement can enhance the user experience and can change their mood to do some shopping. Certainly it is lighting with different colors that can appeal to the sense of the customers.
In the due course visual merchandising is another technique that can work at its best to increase the sales of the store.

Retail store for kids


We have seen in the couple of decades that retail store business is reaching on its heights. Retail industry is expanding in different dimensions. Here are so many ongoing retail businesses and one of them is kid’s retail business that is on its peak in U.A.E and in the Middle East. The diversity in consumer behavior and buying pattern has changed dramatically. Retailing is not only limited to big cities but it’s popular in the outskirts of U.A.E as well. Retail business is thriving in different formats like departmental stores, hypermarkets, malls, gaming zones, and supermarkets, in each format of retail business people just love to shop. In this way retail business has a huge share in the annual growth of a country like U.A.E. Thus here are wonderful chances of growth in retail business and more likely in specialized retail.

Understanding kids mindset:

If we talk about specialized retail, here comes the idea of retail store for kids. A store full of kid’s related accessories is more interesting than a general store. Kids are always a source of constant pleasure. The things related to them are always a source of attraction not only for the parents but also for the young ones who love these innocent creatures. Kid’s retailing is very popular in U.A.E. Imagine a retail store and its steel shelving filled with toys, sportswear, watches and stationary for kids. Kids wear decorated at mannequins with colorful clothes is enough to catch the attention of a spectator. According to a survey retail stores dealing in baby products are making great profits. Retailers are more interested to have a brief understanding about the needs of the kids instead of their parents. However, here is a huge variety of kid’s brands in the stores.

Retail is all about the interest of the buyers:

Retail store is covering kid’s products ranges from 1 to 12years. In retail store for kid’s various departments can be categorized according to the age group. For instance, sales of garments of the infants between the ages of 0-2 years can be displayed in front display shelving. Children and their parents are taking more interest in designer’s wear. They are more conscious about brands and international brands like angels, baby shop and mother care have just hit the market and making the business of billions in U.A.E. it is estimated that parents are spending $1billion yearly for children designer wear clothing and footwear. It is strongly desired by the parents that their children dress well and look graceful. Specialized retail segment caters all the needs of the each age group of the children. Retailers at emirates has the idea about the needs of children, it is the urge of getting higher that invites each international brand to hit the emirates market.

Future planning:
 
retailers have realized the spending trends and the purchasing power of the consumer and now retailer at U.A.E plan to open 50-60 children store in the GCC in the next coming years as the initiative taken by Liwa Trading Enterprises, an Abu Dhabi retailer. Children are getting more brands conscious and they have the strong desire to set their wardrobes for every occasion. However the main business is started from the age between 0-4 year’s kids because these small and colorful dresses add worth to the Storage racks of the super stores.
