Most groceries have a small corner that children head to straight away: colorful bags, candy and jelly. But the buying decision is usually the parents'. A good corner attracts the child while being clear and tidy for the parents. Here are general ideas, with no nutritional or health claims.
Make products easy to understand
Group by product type
Keep jelly in one place, candy in another, chocolate elsewhere. For example, Tottibone's "Jelly Bon" is a jelly line with two varieties, strawberry and pineapple, while "Strawberry + Pineapple Mix" is a candy bag with both flavors. Keeping each in its group avoids confusion.
Keep the label readable
Many parents turn the bag over to read ingredients and the expiry date. Do not stick price labels over the food label or the date.
Height and safety in the aisle
- Put light bags on low shelves children can reach without climbing.
- Keep glass and heavy items away from the corner.
- Leave the aisle wide enough for a stroller.
The clear window helps
Jelly Bon bags have a strawberry- or pineapple-shaped clear window, and the mix bag is colorful with a window showing the pieces. With the window facing the customer, both child and parent see the product as it is.
A QR code for curious parents
Tottibone sweets bags carry a QR code on the back that leads to the product page, such as Jelly Bon Strawberry.
What to avoid
- Do not write shelf signs describing sweets as "healthy" or "beneficial"; such claims need evidence, and the correct information is on the back of the bag.
- Do not open bags to sell pieces loose; that removes the label and the date.
- Do not mix batches without order; put the earliest date first.
Refresh the corner from time to time
Change the arrangement every few weeks, add a small "new in store" sign for a new item, or theme the corner for the start of the school year or holidays, while keeping bags tidy and dates checked.
