Backing our client brands is the theme for this update. While a global pandemic is certainly still throwing curve balls, we are committed to helping our clients – existing and new – to build their brands and projects. The focus is on being agile and adaptable, by creating ‘tactile customer experiences’ with interior wall panels. The goals… delight the visual senses for retail fit-outs and promote sales.
The corona virus pandemic and subsequent stay-at-home orders resulted in a significant rise in online shopping. It has forced many retailers to develop their online offerings at a much faster pace than planned. This dynamic has in turn challenged the need for physical stores, and how they operate.
While buying online may be the most convenient (and safest) approach for now, “the client experience in a retail store cannot be matched online” according to Jean Jacques Guiony, the CFO at LVMH. Enter the concept of Experiential Retail. The optimum mix for emotive purchases relies on both drawing in crowds and then enriching the experience with online content. As a result, for those offering strong and tactile brands – where look, feel, colour, smell and quality are important – the online offering should be “a complement to the physical and emotional experience.”
Building an inviting ‘look and feel’ with clever design using Muros interior wall panels has been proven to unlock the value of space and build brand value. Whether it’s a one-off retail fit-out or nationwide roll out, Muros Wall Panels have successfully contributed to fit-outs in retail, hospitality and workspaces for over a decade.
