Managing queues provides an ideal opportunity for retailers to increase sales revenue and maximise profitability, a key aim of most businesses especially in these economic times. It is essential to ensure that the right equipment is used to effectively manage those queues, in addition to optimising sales from impulse purchase opportunities without using valuable budget on the display product itself.

Bartuf Systems, one of the UK’s leading manufacturers of retail display solutions has introduced a new version of its innovative queue management product, Q Plus which enables every retailer to enjoy the benefits of profitable queue management but at a competitive price that won’t crunch the business’ budget.

Bartuf's new Q+ is a flexible system which is easy to install even by one person so is ideal for smaller businesses as well as large retailers. Its versatility means that it can be used in many configurations to suit the retail floor space available whilst different display options can be selected depending on the product displayed. Graphic panels mean that different deals can be highlighted to push products and services that can be easily changed to suit the retailer.

Solid and robust, Q+ is constructed with PETG plastic for strength and durability, so it’s more than strong enough to stand up to the daily rigours of retail. Posts are 1 metre high whilst different bay widths can be chosen to optimise display space. The system also features tie bars accepting euro hooks and a heavy base ensures optimum stability, a real retail must have. Retailers can choose what product to display where from magazines and confectionary to revenue maximising greeting cards and CDs – all of which can be dual displayed to generate impulse sales from both sides of the queue.

Commenting on the new product, Steve Davenport, Bartuf’s Managing Director said: “We’ve been working on this innovative and cost effective solution for retailers for some time and we are delighted with the result. Retailers have explained their needs to us and we have listened. The Q+ is the result and we’re thrilled with it.”
