Shopping Baskets; A Small Detail that Can Make a Big Difference
Shopping baskets are a really important part of the retail shopping experience. They allow customers to carry & buy more within a shopping space. Not only are they designed to make shopping so much easier, they also provide a comfortable experience, without any risk of dropped items. Just having the option available ensures shoppers won’t have to clumsily carry products to the till. A customer struggling to carry goods through your store will impact negatively on your business’s reputation. Thus, we implore you to invest in some suitable carrying baskets. We here at VKF UK are confident we have the Shopping Baskets you need for your business!Additionally, Shopping Baskets encourage more impulse purchases because your customers' have the capacity to purchase more. As a result, Shopping Baskets are just as important for the store as they are for the customers. The key, therefore, is finding the right baskets for your shop and our team at VKF Renzel can help you.
Which Shopping Baskets are Right for you?
Standard Shopping Basket
These baskets are the ‘all-round’ choice that are popular in many retailers due to their stackability and reliability. They are the comfortable choice for a small to mid-sized retails which could include businesses such as grocery shops, clothes stores or stationary shop. They can easily stack by the door, picked up when shoppers arrive, which is ideal for encouraging impulse shopping with your customers. They’re also durable, which means that they’re excellent value for money, lasting for years at a time. For example, our Plastic Shopping Basket, which qualifies as a Standard Shopping Basket, is available with two handles for more durability and a higher maximum weight option. We have all the Shopping Basket solutions our customers could need. Plastic Shopping Baskets come in a wide assortment of colours to suit your brand colours.
Large Shopping Basket
If your shop stocks larger, heavier items, then you’ll want to increase the size of your basket to accommodate for this. Large Shopping Baskets are taller & wider than Standard Shopping Baskets, providing extra space without being too bulky to carry. Some retailers will sell larger items and there needs to be a basket to accommodate for this. This ensures that your customers still have a pleasant experience around your shop and they can subliminally encourage them to purchase more. Generally speaking, it is an excellent way for you to make sure that all of your customers' needs are met.
Mini Baskets
On the opposite side of the fence to large baskets are mini baskets. These are a great choice if you’re a purveyor of much smaller items. If you specialise in items like jewellery or bath products, then a large or standard size basket might well be obsolete as they quickly become an unnecessary burden for many people. Mini baskets might well be more suited to your needs, as they still offer the opportunity for impulse buying without making your customers feel weighed down or like they’re going to know over products as they browse.
Mobile Baskets
If you feel like you need larger baskets, then you might want to consider investing in mobile baskets rather than just buying bigger hand-held baskets. Mobile baskets have wheels along the bottom of them, so they can be dragged along the floor rather than being held in hand. They are large, deep tools that can stack a lot of products of varying sizes.
If you have a larger shop, then this might be a better choice for you. This means that your customers can put more into them without feeling weighed down. Not only does this improve the chances of making more purchases but it also helps to make your shopping experience more accessible to those with limited mobility.
