Outdoor Portable Shops – Mobile Retail Solutions

Outdoor portable shops are the perfect foil both for small sole traders wanting to get into the retail industry as well as larger brands with an interest in increasing their presence. In this post, we take a look at why mobility is becoming ever more important for shop owners.

Death of the High Street

The high street as we know it is in steep decline. Over the past few years large chains, including Jamie’s Italian and Prezzo, have announced closures of formerly thriving outlets, while erstwhile retail giants like Toy ‘R Us have ceased to trade all together.

A major factor behind this decline is a change in consumer spending habits: whereas before, buyers had to go to a physical market place to procure their goods, today they can shop online from the comfort of their own home.

Follow Footfall

This is where outdoor portable shops can present a huge benefit to owners.

Firstly, the mobile units can be placed in locations that are convenient to consumers. These locales include the concourse of a busy shopping centre, platform of a train station and terminal of an international airport.

Furthermore, the units allow an owner to actively change location in order to follow footfall, and thereby take of advantage of sporadically busy market places. These locations include football stadiums on match day, summer festivals and music concerts.

Significantly, the units offer very low start-up and running costs in comparison to static brick and mortar equivalents.
