Introduction

In our latest blog post, we shared the initial four key design factors to consider when opening a restaurant, retail, or cannabis storefront. In this article, we provide four more vital considerations for businesses in these sectors to keep in mind while creating displays that will stand out and highlight key examples from past Showbest projects.

1. Consideration of Ergonomics and Accessibility
For restaurants and retail environments, the design should consider ergonomics to ensure ease of use for customers. Menus and displays should be at eye level, with font sizes that are easy to read. In cannabis dispensaries, displays should be accessible to all customers, including those with mobility challenges. Considering ergonomics and accessibility fosters inclusivity and a positive customer experience.

Highlight: Showbest prioritized ergonomics when designing displays for High Times’ new cannabis dispensary location, ensuring menus and displays were easily readable and accessible for all patrons. This attention to detail contributed to a seamless and enjoyable buying experience.

2. Versatility and Flexibility
The needs of restaurants, retail environments, and cannabis dispensaries can change over time. Manufacturers should design displays that are versatile and adaptable to different products, promotions, or seasonal themes. Modular displays that can be rearranged easily offer flexibility in keeping the space fresh and engaging.

Highlight: An adventure-themed airport retail chain, No Boundaries, sought Showbest’s expertise in creating modular displays that allowed for seamless reconfiguration to accommodate changing product lines and seasonal promotions. The adaptable displays added versatility to the retail space, keeping it fresh and engaging for customers.

3. Integration of Technology
Incorporating technology can enhance the overall appeal of displays. For instance, digital screens in restaurants and retail environments can display dynamic content such as videos and animations. In cannabis dispensaries, interactive screens can provide detailed product information, dosage recommendations, and educational content. Integrating technology not only modernizes the display but also provides valuable information to customers.

Highlight: Showbest collaborated with forward-thinking cannabis dispensary, Drk Mtr, to incorporate digital screens in displays, offering interactive product information and educational content. This innovative use of technology-enhanced customer engagement and elevated the dispensary’s reputation as a modern, customer-centric establishment.

4. Compliance with Regulations
For cannabis dispensaries, compliance with relevant regulations is essential. Manufacturers must ensure that the display design complies with local laws regarding advertising and product visibility. Maintaining compliance avoids potential legal issues and maintains a positive reputation in the industry.

Highlight: In close partnership with Liv Cannabis, Showbest ensured that all display designs complied with local regulations regarding product visibility and advertising. This meticulous adherence to legal requirements safeguarded the dispensary’s operations and reputation.
