Should I Re-Fit My Store During Covid-19?
“Should I re-fit my store during Covid-19?”
This is one of the most common questions that is popping up, and no wonder! With the barrage of covid lockdowns across the country you may be wondering, should I commit to a new store fitout, and is now really the best time? The answer, is yes!
With the majority of people now working from home and not being actively encouraged to visit retail shopping centres, you may be wondering why we’re advising to re-furbish any existing or newly obtained stores. The truth is, now is the perfect time to plan and fit out your store – one that can adjust to the new Covid guidelines and ensure your store can stay open in 2021.
Here’s why
Seeing your brand name not only survive through Covid, but thrive with new fittings, fresh looking signage and new layouts will encourage customers to flock back to your store post lockdown, they will feel reassured by your ongoing investment in your store and trust your brand.
Refitting whilst things are quiet on the high street is also perfect for getting in and out with minimal disruption. Usually we advise to schedule any fitting dates which coincide with your quietest days so that you minimise the loss of sales whilst your store is getting a facelift, however, with no people to speak of, this is truly the perfect time to take that step, preparing your store for success in 2021.
We’re still open!
Our staff are working remotely with specialist CAD and 3D visualisation software, meaning we are able to progress enquiries and get things moving for you.
With the request of some initial information up front from new clients, we are able to draw, visualise and quote as usual.
So start using your downtime to plan for your future fit out!
