DISPLAY TECHNOLOGIES AND TRADE FIXTURES
UNVEIL INNOVATIVE VISI-FLOOR™; REDUCES GROCERY
RETAILERS' "LABOR PAINS"


All-In-One, Labor Saving, Gravity Feed Merchandising System
Builds In-Store Profits of Multiple Products

COLLEGE POINT, New York -- Designed and produced by Display Technologies to minimize labor costs and maximize net profits for the grocery retailer, the versatile Visi-Floor™ System was recently introduced by Trade Fixtures LLC as a total merchandising solution to display a multitude of different products throughout the store. The innovative, easy-to-install gravity-feed system is distributed by both Trade Fixtures, a leading manufacturer of bulk food merchandising systems, and its parent company, Display Technologies, a leading, international designer and manufacturer of retail point-of-purchase displays.

The Visi-Floor System is ideal for merchandising labor intensive categories such as HBA, refrigerated products, salad dressings, automotive supplies, and a variety of food categories.

Recent reports indicate the cost of retail labor accounts for 12 percent of retail operating expenses and over 50 percent of the gross margin. Shelf-stocking is the most labor-intensive retail activity, and the Visi-Floor™ solves many of the merchandising challenges that retailers face today.

Ideal for both warm and cold merchandising, the patent-pending Visi-Floor™ offers total versatility, enabling the retailer to customize its shelves to display nearly any consumer packaged good, in any section. The gravity feed feature saves labor costs by eliminating constant fronting, reducing inventory checks and delivering easier product rotation. Easy to install and maintain, the system features self-lubricating, injection-molded technology that enables products to literally glide off the shelves into consumers' hands.

The Visi-Floor™ System offers a multitude of benefits...

-- INVENTORY MANAGEMENT. Gravity Feed angular design positions packaging closer to the shelf front, eliminating constant fronting with a neat, orderly presentation that makes counting stock quick and easy, without reaching deep into the shelf. Packaging remains upright and front-faced, resolving the issues of perceived out-of-stocks and unreachable products.

-- EASIER ROTATION. Its Gravity Feed creates Easier Product Rotation to keep product fresh, making stocking and restocking quick and easy.

-- INJECTION MOLDED TECHNOLOGY. Trade Fixtures introduces an injection molded technology so advanced the system actually lubricates itself, enabling products to literally glide off the shelves into consumers' hands. Internal lubricants emerge over time, keeping the system working flawlessly for years, minimizing maintenance costs and expense.

-- MULTI-PRODUCT DISPLAY. The flexible system adapts easily to cartons or multi-packs, heavy or light products, narrow or wide packaging, refrigerated and freezer goods or warm merchandise. The retailer can customize its shelves to display nearly any consumer packaged good-- from food, beverages, and health and beauty products-- to pet foods/supplies, condiments, automotive supplies, and more. It accommodates nearly every shape and style of packaging-- from bottles and cans, to boxes and angled tubes, and everything in-between.

-- EASY-TO-INSTALL. The Visi-Floor™ installs quickly and easily on your existing gravity feed shelving, or can be modified, with optional adapter brackets, to convert flat shelves to a gravity feed angle.

-- PRODUCT VISIBILITY. Its clear front enhances total package visibility, creating sweep resistance to more costly products which can be viewed quickly and easily by consumers, within the display.

-- TIME-TESTED DURABILITY. The Visi-Floor™ is crafted using the same state-of-the-art technology used to manufacture the award-winning Visibility Slide®, a beverage system with over 5 million units installed worldwide. The beverage organizer is a tested, durable system that has no breakable mechanical springs or tabs.

-- STRONG SELL-THROUGH. Clean modern design maximizes sales appeal and offers a smooth, steady flow of products.

-- DESIGN FLEXIBILITY. The system easily adapts to shelves ranging in width from 24 to 48 inches, and a depth of 16 to 42 inches. The system offers modular components (dividers, front lips and back stops) that assemble in a snap and enable the retailer to customize its shelf-set with endless configurations and design combinations.

-- OPEN-FLOOR DESIGN remains clean, maximizing air flow in cold vaults and refrigerated sections. Its smooth linear feed assists stock rotations according to "use-by" dates.

The Visi-Floor™ is readily available for immediate delivery anywhere in the world.
