DI Alfred Leitl (both in Amstetten), Maik
Drewitz (Oberhausen) and Andrés Gutiérrez (Oberentfelden). The overall management lies in the hands of Helmut Neher. If
required ShopConsult can also call upon
an experienced network of specialists
from a variety of disciplines. This comprehensive range of store branding services
will be presented at the next EuroShop in
Düsseldorf.

2,155 m² – as here in Wiener Neustadt (large photo) actually represent quite
a small format for Eybl; the mega-stores of Austria’s top player can reach
as much as 10,000 m². Since 2007 Eybl has been promoting its quality and
functional brand Seven Summits for outdoor sports, mountaineering, skiing
and snowboarding (the small photo shows the shop in Innsbruck).
The boom in sports retailing
Sports retailing is currently one of the winners in the contest for the favour of consumers. The sector profits
from social trends (wellness, fitness, feminism), clever (product) innovations and increasingly from the
first-class presentation of their displays at the POS. And when the weather god is favourably disposed too,
records are regularly broken. SHOP aktuell paid a visit to a number of professionals to ask them
what, where, when and why business was so good.
“Intersport: cold weather raises the temperature”, “Record
business for sports retailers”, “Sport 2000 breaks all records”
and “Adidas achieves 11 % increase in turnover during first
half-year” are just some of the headlines seen over the past
weeks which document the boom within the sector. In concrete terms this means, for example, that Intersport Deutschland achieved an increase in turnover of 7.7 % during the
first half-year, while its competitor Sport 2000 managed 6 %.
Future prospects look promising too. The current fitness and
6
umdasch shop-concept
wellness trend, the desire for outdoor activities, and the rapid increase in sporting activities of modern women and “Best
Agers” are contributing to this increase in turnover. And then
there are innovative products such as E-bikes, GPS equipment, technical clothing and high-quality backpacks. Well
publicised sports events add the icing on the cake. The 20 %
increase in the segment “fan articles and football” in the current Intersport range (see diagram), for example, can be attributed to the football world championships.

In its flagship store in Kaprun, planned by Blocher Blocher and fitted
out by Umdasch, Bründl sets new standards when it comes to
authentic sports-shop architecture and goods presentation. For the
skiing world championships in Schladming in 2013 Bründl is already
planning a sports shop in the new Planai stadium (small photo).
Of top players and interesting niches
In Germany the buying associations Intersport (approx. 36 %)
and Sport 2000 (approx. 19 %) account for more than half the
sports retail turnover. Other major players include chain stores
such as SportScheck, Karstadt Sport and Runners Point. The
next moves within Germany of the major French company

stores account for approximately 38 % of the turnover, while
non-organised specialist retailers account for 12 %.
What is noticeable is the very high concentration in the sports
article retail sector. This provides an opportunity for regional
and/or niche concepts focusing on specific ranges of products. There are special retailers for tennis, golf, equestrian sports articles, bikes,
boards, outdoor pursuits etc.
But not all these concepts are
able to establish themselves
since, according to Klaus Jost
of Intersport, “it is difficult to
achieve a satisfactory profit,
or at least to achieve a satisfactory profit in the long term”.

Sports retailing
The new concept of Sport 2000 for large areas received its premiere in
Landsberg. The brief was for “Shopfitting light” and strong colour accents

for fashion shoes and streetware with “S2” (small photo from Dresden).

show just what has happened to the former niche product outdoor sports: 7,000 m² of authentically staged sales area, brimming over with adventure, experience and dreams. Managing
Directors Thomas Lipke and Andreas Bartmann are now setting their sights on further expansion. The sales area in Dresden is being tripled, and new stores are being opened in Frankfurt am Main and Munich (4,700 m²). In 2012 a 3,000-m² project
will be realised at Zurich main railway station in co-operation
with Transa. Trend scouts should be booking their tickets for
these destinations already.
Intersport Bründl and Globetrotter are two examples of the way
that what appears to be a niche has been developed into a multipliable concept. Starting from small beginnings, Bründl has
expanded to become one of the best-known sports stores in

give the number of items to be displayed and hence the necessary sales area. In practice this naive assessment cannot
work because it fails to take adequate account of locationspecific characteristics and the competition. “That is why there
are no standard sizes, only recommended sizes”, comments
Thomas Römer of Intersport. “planning along these lines focuses strictly on economic considerations,” says Dr. Peter Wahle

are selected individually to match the location. A great detail of

“The market will divide itself even more strongly into two segments,” observes Mathias Schenk. “One the one hand the lowprice segment without advice and large sales areas will continue
to expand. And on the other there is the specialist retailer who
must distinguish himself through his advice and correspondingly well-placed range of goods.” In everyday practice Dr. Peter
Wahle has mastered this virtuoso performance using the full
range of store types. Sport Eybl, a “Buying Member” of Intersport Austria, is a group of large-scale sports article stores, a
premium retailer with a fairly big market share. The ten megastores and 15 shops add up to a total of some 73,000 m² of

excessive emphasis on visual merchandising and stagecraft,
because “in contrast to a Niketown or a Globetrotter we have to
decide in the last analysis what is ready to be reproduced, what
can be systematised and multiplied. That is why we design our
flagship stores in an effective and targeted manner. What matters is that they are successful.”
Director Luis Rueda has to say on the subject of trends in visual
merchandising: “Simplicity!” Rueda also notes that the use of
LED technology for lighting is becoming more affordable for a
broader spectrum of uses. That provides more scope for stagecraft in retailing.
Of the sports performance of Umdasch Shop-Concept
Peter Wahle sees further potential in the stagecraft. “What
I miss a bit in the sports retail sector is the focus on experience. The arousing of the desire for a product must be given
greater emphasis. I see the sports retail sector today as focusing too strongly on what people actually need; I see it as being
too masculine in its approach. You go in, and everything is neatly
arranged, so you find what you need and then leave again.” That
is why the staff at Eybl are working to make a sports retail store
into a sports department store and sports experience store. A
large Eybl store should be experienced by visitors as a sports
adventure park with different areas offering different experiences. Its role models are Abercrombie & Fitch and Hollister for
staging and Zara and H&M when it comes to visual merchandising, but with frequent changes of goods ranges as at Globetrotter, and with authentic sports architecture. That is what the Niketowns are famous for. It is surprising to hear what Nike Design

The perspectives for the
EuroShop 2011
The next EuroShop will be held from 26 February to 2 March 2011 in Düsseldorf. “The Global Trade Fair”, as it
is subtitled, is the leading fair worldwide for investments in the retail sector, and especially for all aspects of
shopfitting. SHOP aktuell spoke to representatives of the Messe Düsseldorf and the European Retail Institute (EHI),
the sponsor of the EuroShop, to learn what visitors can expect to find this time. Taking part in the discussion were
Elke Moebius, Michael Degen (both from Messe Düsseldorf), Dkfm. Michael Gerling and Ulrich Spaan (both
from EHI) and Reinhard Peneder (SHOP aktuell).
In view of the consumer and investment climate, is 26. 2. − 2. 3. 2011 a
good time to visit the EuroShop?
Yes. Although the situation in the global
retail sector remains tense, it seems as if
the very worst is over. After the first quarter of 2010 it now looks as if the market is
slowly beginning to move again. And as
far as retail firms are concerned, it looks
as if action is needed now in particular
following a long period of frozen investments. On the other hand, retailers must
save costs, which they should be able to
achieve, for example, if they invest in the
latest energy-saving IT, cooling equipment or lighting technology.
Why should anyone visit this particular fair? And who should/ must visit it?
There is no other fair worldwide which
can compete with this one within the
retail sector. Every three years the EuroShop sets standards in quality, variety
and international flair. It is a barometer
for trends and a forum for innovation for
pioneering future topics and the most
important platform for communications
and business in the international retail
scene. Since it is only held every three
years everyone should make sure that
they don’t miss it. That applies to members of the board and managing directors
as well as anyone else who is involved in
retail investment.
Following the record EuroShop in
2008, what are the expectations as
regards participation by exhibitors
and numbers of visitors?
With 1,900 exhibitors in 15 trade fair halls
and over 100,000 visitors from 90 coun14

tries, the last one was the biggest EuroShop of all time. So the expectations are
extremely high this time too. The last one
will be hard to beat. The current registration rate and discussions with exhibitors
and retail experts show nonetheless that
the position of EuroShop as the leading
fair worldwide is unbroken. So we are
very optimistic.
What can visitors to the EuroShop
2011 expect to find – especially as
regards innovations?
At the moment exhibitors are reluctant to reveal their hands. The fair itself
will definitely offer new features, however. The new “MQ” area will be introduced, in which manufacturers of premium segment figures will present
their products. You will be able to see
exceptionally high-quality mannequins
for unusual product presentations in
a very attractive architectural setting.
In cooperation with the EHI the EuroShop is providing the topic of sustainability with its own platform within the
“Ecopark” exhibition space for the first
time. The “Designer Village” in Hall 12,
which proved very popular in 2008, will
be repeated this time and will have an
even stronger international focus.
Within the individual subject areas,
in other words EuroConcept, EuroSales, EuroCIS and EuroExpo, are
the top addresses already committed
or are there still a number of gaps to
be filled?
There are no real gaps. In all four EuroShop segments virtually all the market
leaders are already on board.
SHOP aktuell 108
SHOP Talk
What can visitors expect from the
programme of congresses and events
accompanying the fair?
The highlight and also the starting signal
will be provided by the EuroShop Retail
Design Conference, which is traditionally held on the first day of the fair. Topnotch architects and experts from world
famous retail concerns will present
trends, projects and visions relating to
the hot topics of retail design. In a separate setting the EuroShop RetailDesign Awards will then be presented. A
fitting highlight of the EuroCIS sector
amount of time spent visiting the EuroShop can vary considerably, depending
on the interest in what is on offer, the
areas of responsibility and the position
and origins of our professional visitors.
A small retailer who attends the EuroShop and is looking specifically for a
new shelving system for his shop will
need much less time than the managing director of a retail company operating on an international scale who does
not simply want to find out what is on
offer in all the various sectors, but who
will use the EuroShop and its accompanying congresses for plenty of international networking.
The proportion of visitors attending
the EuroShop from outside Germany
has continued to grow and currently lies at about 60 %. Is that a development which you encourage and in
your opinion will the numbers of overseas visitors continue to grow?
The project manager of EuroShop for Messe
Düsseldorf, Elke Moebius, is optimistic about the
prospects of the EuroShop 2011.
will be the presentation of the coveted
Retail Technology Awards Europe. In
the EuroSales segment on the Tuesday
of EuroShop we can all look forward to
the global POP Marketing Conference
organised by the Point of Purchase
International Association (POPAI) and
the first POPAI Award in the Germanspeaking region. And then for the entire
duration of the fair professional visitors
can take advantage of the free forums:
the EuroShop Forum Architecture &
Design, the POPAI forum and the forum
within the Ecopark.
Who will find one day sufficient for a
visit to the EuroShop, and who should
stay for longer than that?
Well, the average visit of our professional visitors already lies at two days,
which means that one day is not long
enough for most of them. However, the
SHOP aktuell 108
Of course this is a development which we
are pleased to see; after all, EuroShop is
the Number One fair for the retail sector and we aim to maintain this position.
But that doesn’t mean that we neglect
the national market – on the contrary. In
Germany in particular the concentration
processes mean that the number of retail
decision makers is shrinking. Nonetheless, in 2008 we had over 43,000 visitors
from Germany, a figure which was once
again slightly higher than that for 2005.
In the long term there is definitely room
for an increase in the number of visitors
attending, for example from North and
South America, China and India.
How does a fair organiser deal with
the continued concentration in the
retail sector, in other words with the
fact that the number of decision-makers is shrinking continually?
These are basic conditions of the market
which we naturally follow but which must
not be allowed to force us to change our
basic concept. Although we are delighted if we can register increasing numbers
of visitors, it is the quality which is infinitely more important than the quantity.
At the EuroShop the quota of top decision-makers among our professional
visitors is extremely high and must not
be watered down in any way. When the
“Who’s who” of the global retail scene is
present, our exhibitors will continue to
be satisfied even if the absolute numbers
should happen to drop slightly.
On the subject of shop investment:
apart from the EuroShop, which fairs
and events do you regard as being
particularly relevant in a European
and worldwide context?
At the risk of sounding arrogant: it is
a fact that the EuroShop is the most
important specialist fair worldwide for
the entire investment spectrum within the retail sector and related sectors,
and that no other fair is as important on
a global scale. Of course there are very
important fairs and events for individual
markets, such as for example the Global
Shop for the North and South American
market, the Equipemag primarily for
the French market and Japanshop and
Retail Asia Expo for the Asian market.
And for individual segments of the EuroShop there are essential branch events,
such as for example Light & Building for
the lighting sector or the NRF Conference as an outstanding platform for the
presentation of innovative concepts in
shop design.
Do you have a “Plan B” for volcanic
eruptions and what does it consist
of?
We don’t have a standardised “Plan B”,
but we do have a tried and tested and
highly flexible crew at the fair who do
not believe that customer service stops
at the exit from the fair hall. When the
volcano in Iceland erupted and air traffic came to a halt, our fair site was bustling with the worldwide No. 1 fairs wire
Tube with 2,400 exhibitors and 69,000
visitors from all five continents. They
needed help immediately. And so on
Friday afternoon (the last day of the fair)
we immediately opened a branch office

the trade-fair offices, which without further ado extended the visas, especially
those of our Asian guests, while rail tickets, rental cars and hotel rooms in Düsseldorf were organised at the counter of

The advertising spot “Write The Future”, produced for the 2010 Football World Championships, does not merely
demonstrate the sure instinct of the advertising professionals at Nike; it also conveys a clear message: with

this positive attitude to life that the world’s largest sports equipment manufacturer aims to promote amongst
the young people of South Africa in the “House of Football”. The Training Centre in Soweto/Johannesburg
opened in time for the kickoff of the World Cup. Umdasch Shop-Concept was one of the players as the world
concern’s shopfitting partner.
“You build up a player like a house, starting with the foundation, the basic structure.” This message, chiselled into the concrete at the entrance, accurately describes the philosophy of
the “House of Football”. From now onwards Nike will be giving

of innovation and presentation.
A training centre with the latest equipment
The training ground is located directly on bustling Old Potch
Road in Soweto/ Johannesburg, on the site of a former sports
house. In collaboration with the South African Football Association (SAFA), it includes two of the very latest artificial grass
football pitches and the three-storey “House of Football”. Built
of concrete, steel and wood, the front of the entrance is surrounded by an artistic wire structure which reveals itself upon
second sight as a goalkeeper and a football fan.

Upon entering the building the young players find themselves in
a world which permits the dream of becoming a football star to
come a little closer. Aphorisms about football in the native language of South Africa can be read here, and successful teams
and Nike stars are described in glowing terms. From a fitness
room via cabins with the latest equipment and a player lounge
to offices for the SAFA and the humanitarian initiative RED, the
centre offers the entire range of a football academy and school
for life. The South African Minister of Health, Dr. Aaron Motsoaledi, summarized it thus: “Nike’s approach to combine football,
education and medication is a powerful example of how sport
can be used as a catalyst, enabling youth to make informed
decisions and hopefully live a life free of HIV.”

management in shopfitting
Professional project management has long been standard in an international context when it comes to the
execution of large-scale and rollout projects. Nowadays both retail professionals and brands are concentrating
once more on their core competences. In the planning and realisation of shopfitting projects or shop-in-shop
solutions they are turning increasingly to experienced specialists. Michael Staller explains to us the typical
procedures of the project management process from an expert point of view.
The main goal is an optimisation of interfaces in the planning and
realisation process as well as a contact person representing the
company in charge of the execution who will be responsible for the
internal co-ordination and supervision of all those involved in the
20
umdasch shop-concept
project. The motto is always “quality – deadline – costs”, although
the subject of “costs” currently enjoys too high a priority, since
experience shows that ultimately it is always either the quality or
the deadline that suffers when the price is reduced too drastically.

The Umdasch project management model represents the main value-added process in project execution. It does not
show specific accompanying procedures such as, for example, business handling and permanent quality control.
Abbreviations: M = milestone, PL = project leader.
Shopfitting companies are therefore called upon to offer their customers a competitive price-performance ratio and to reduce the
long-term costs for the client through efficient project management. Even in the initial discussions the shopfitter must prove
his professional competence throughout the entire value-added
chain of shopfitting. This applies especially for international rollouts or properties which are to be handed over ready for occupation. Here wide-ranging logistics skills and experience in the execution of interior construction projects will be called for.
But the subject of the “engineering” of the shopfitting furnishings
is also becoming increasingly important. Often the basis here
consists of no more than the outline drawings provided by widely
varying architect’s offices which then have to be transformed into
practical and affordable furnishings by the shopfitting construcSHOP aktuell 108
tion teams. Of course the overall design and the intended function
may not be changed. The experience and skill of the construction
team proves its worth especially in the later multiplication of the
furnishings, known as the roll-out, when the shopfitting furnishings are required to “function”. This starts with the classic pre‑
paration of the work and continues through the production of the
furnishings and the logistics through to the construction site and
the expert assembly.
Once the furnishings have been designed the next step in the
professional project management process can begin: the construction of a sample or prototype. Now the detailed solutions
which have been agreed must be executed in a practical manner,
so that the customer has the opportunity not only to assess the
main elements of the shop furnishings on a 1:1 scale, but can

ultimately also pass them for construction. Sample construction
is an important core skill of a top-ranking shopfitter, since here he
can demonstrate his skills for the first time during the project and
the client will gain a first impression of the product quality and
ability to work to deadlines of the partner he has chosen on this
occasion. In fact, it is often ultimately the positive inspection and
passing of the furnishings for construction which will confirm the
awarding of the contract to a shopfitting concern.
Clear rules of play facilitate the co-operation
Of course the “rules of play” must be negotiated between the client
and the supplier before the project is actually realised. Prices, quantities to be purchased and deadlines must be agreed in advance
and laid down in appropriate contracts. That, too, is one of the characteristics of a good company. Assuming that all aspects of the
project have been agreed with the customer, the actual execution
process can then begin. The project manager who will be in charge
can be selected and introduced to the customer as a contact person. After that, the realisation of the project can start.
The result is worth seeing: a highly successful new branch,
in this case for NKD.
22
umdasch shop-concept
In the case of larger roll-out projects storage capacity is very important.
Umdasch Shop-Concept Germany has an ideally suited logistics centre
at its disposal in Neidenstein.
In a shopfitting company clearly structured and transparent
project realisation processes are the basis for success. A sensible allocation of tasks and clearly defined areas of responsibility within the various stages of the project permit the company
to direct the various tasks in an efficient and effective manner –
“Business Excellence in Execution”. An enterprise resource planning system (ERP) which has been adapted to suit the requirements of a shopfitting company will support all those involved in
the project and provide information at all times about the current
status of the execution. This means that possible clashes of deadlines resulting from missing approvals or other causes can be
recognised in good time. The project manager can react promptly and correspondingly solve the problems. Subsequent changes of content can be examined by the customer without delay
and taken into account. Depending on the state of progress of
the project these changes may affect both deadlines and prices.
The person in charge of the project will examine them and agree
the next steps with the customer in order not to jeopardise the
punctual completion of the entire project.

Project Management
The starting point on the building site is a virtually bare
space, as in our case here in a specialist market centre. The floor has
already been laid and the electrician is just finishing his work.
The Umdasch lorry has arrived just in time and the assembly of the shopfittings
which it has delivered is about to start.
About the author of this article: Michael Staller is a member of the
senior management committee of the Umdasch Shopfitting Group and
has been the chairman of the management of Umdasch ShopConcept GmbH Germany since 2006. Before this Michael Staller was
employed for 12 years in senior positions for Lindner AG, Europe’s
leading interior interior finishing company company.
In the case of complete shopfitting projects, known as general management projects, the preliminary work on the building
site will be examined parallel to the interior furnishings, and the
realisation plans (floor plans, ceiling plans, drywall installation,
electrical planning,…) for the interior fittings will be drawn up in
agreement with the client on the basis of official regulations (fire
protection, escape routes,…). The project manager will also draw
up an overall plan for the various deadlines and will instruct the
firms involved in the interior construction fixtures. The interfaces between interior construction and interior furnishings are discussed internally, clarified and immediately carried out. Once the
furnishings have been constructed they are commissioned for the
project in hand and delivered to the building site which is already
at an advanced stage.
Incidentally, one of the top addresses when it comes to general
contractors and building management is the Assmann engineering office in Leibnitz, which operates independently from Assmann Ladenbau. The experienced team around master builder
Ing. Michael Kuss provides a complete range of general contracting services for builders from the retail and trade sectors: project
development, property evaluation, surveys, builder’s representation, permission planning, realisation planning, project management, project supervision, construction management, construction
supervision, planning and site co-ordination, safety co-ordination,
acceptance, documentation and property supervision.
Logistics skills of shopfitting companies
In particular in the case of larger roll-out projects, corresponding storage facilities will be a further advantage in order to ensure
that all shopfitting furnishings can be brought together on time
to a so-called “split point” (holding storage depot). The constant
monitoring and direction of both the internal and external supply
chain throughout the project will be one of the essential prereqSHOP aktuell 108
uisites for success. The shopfitting
firm’s own production department
and external suppliers must both
deliver the goods to the shopfitter’s
logistics centre in line with a precise
schedule. A continuous description
and labelling of the goods required
for the realisation process by means of the previously-mentioned ERP system will facilitate the commissioning (assembly of
the customer’s order) and dispatch at a later stage. The labelling is effected by means of the latest barcode systems which are
directly linked into the company-specific project execution system. Clear and unmistakable descriptions of the goods or articles
concerned will also simplify the identification of the furniture on
the building site.
Ideally, the interior building works will have been largely completed at this stage. At an earlier stage the project manager will
already have instructed the assembly team, prepared the assembly plans and agreed on the assembly deadlines. It goes without
saying that all the furnishings must be delivered punctually and in
the correct quantities to the correct location, thereby underlining
the shopfitter’s logistics skills. Only in this way can the assembly
be carried out efficiently and without loss of time.
Once the assembly has been carried out successfully and any
faults which may have occurred removed on site as soon as possible, the last phase of an optimal project realisation process can
begin. The shopfitting company’s project manager will draw up a
final account for the project once the customer has approved the
completed work. A clear and readily comprehensible listing of all
the tasks which were requested and carried out will be a basic
requirement for the client to check and approve the invoice without delay. umdasch shop-concept

Esprit [4]
In the new New York store an integrated
design concept runs through the various
Esprit lines. The back walls of printed
lengths of fabric provide a changeable
stage setting.
Esprit
New York‘s
Shopping Hotspot
The lifestyle brand Esprit, which is listed on the Hong Kong
Stock Exchange, has over 1.1 million m² of sales area in over
40 countries. The company operates more than 830 own
shops and sells its products in over 12,900 wholesale locations worldwide. These figures demonstrate impressively the
brand’s standing in the fashion business. Esprit has landed
another coup with the opening of a store on Manhattan’s legendary Herald Square in 34th Street. From the VIP pre-opening
party to spectacular changing actions by models in the shop
windows, the advertising campaign for what is currently the
biggest Esprit store in North America has attracted appropriate attention.
The innovative design concept combines the latest elements
from Esprit shops around the globe – the best of the current
generation of stores, so to speak. The store design is characterised by a slightly darkened look, subtle colours and a
focused use of materials (mostly zebra oak, black powdered
material and concrete). The highlight is the curving glass and
stainless steel staircase elegantly linking all three floors. John

GEOX
The store that impresses
“The shoe that breathes” is the slogan which
the Italian shoe manufacturer
GEOX uses propagate its name
worldwide. Mario Moretti Polegato, the firm’s founder, discovered by chance that the
microclimate in shoes can be
improved by drilling holes in
the sole and therefore developed a new patented shoe
sole. GEOX appeals to a
demanding clientèle which
lays plenty of emphasis on
wearing comfortable shoes.
In its new flagship store in Vienna,
the biggest single-brand store in Austria to
date, GEOX presents ladies’ footwear and fashion
on the ground floor and men’s and children’s collections on
the first floor.
Assmann Construction Management acted as general contractors and accompanied the rebuilding of the former branch
of Stiefelkönig to create the GEOX flagship store. The company was responsible not only for the organisation of the project,
but also for the acquisition of all the necessary permits. The
replacement of the windows and the removal of the cladding
and canopies allow the impressive façade with its 13 shop
windows to be appreciated more fully. Following the reconstruction the interior spaces also seem more spacious and
welcoming. This has been achieved through a harmonious

The DFS Group, the top name in the international travel retail
business, is currently on a world tour with its latest shop concept. After stopovers in Hawaii, Abu Dhabi and Hong Kong …
the duty-free operator has now stopped off in Auckland. The
entire retail area at the New Zealand airport has been modernised. The new DFS store is one of the highlights of the shopping mile and is located immediately behind the security area.
In Auckland DFS offers a selection of over 70 exclusive brands.
A wide-ranging palette of different types of goods (perfumery/
cosmetics articles, spirits, tobacco goods, confectionery and
electrical items) aims to satisfy the shopping requirements of
virtually every traveller. Interactive and personalised offers make
for an individual shopping experience. The shopping basket may
well contain a Malibu bottle the traveller has designed personally as well as a photo showing Formula One star Lewis Hamilton which, with a little bit of luck, may turn out to be an entrance
ticket for the Singapore Grand Prix.
The duty-free area follows the walk-through principle – in other
words, it leads the traveller via a skilful routing system into and
through the store. Promotion islands which use LED technology to produce different colours and moods provide eye-catching details. Arching ceiling elements as well as chrome, mirrored
and gleaming wood surfaces underline the high-quality design
of the travel retail store.
Umdasch Shop-Concept skilfully executed the luxurious materials and colour concept of the DFS Group in airports around the world.
After Auckland (shown in the photo), further glamorous destinations are due to include places like Saipan and Los Angeles.

In the fast lane
The fashion label MEXX has moved
into the fast lane with a comprehensive brand relaunch. “Everything is new” is the motto: the collections and advertising lines have
been completely revised and even
the shops are now appearing with a
new look. The store concept was given
its première in the Rhein Center in Cologne.
A series of new openings, including Hamburg,
Vienna, St. Petersburg and Stockholm, are in the
pipeline.
The new shops reflect a “Metropolitan Casual
Lifestyle”. CEO Thomas Grote comments: “MEXX is inspired by
big-city life. And precisely that is what you will see and feel in our
stores.” Authenticity and individualism are the characteristics of
the design in the new shops. In future, each store will tell its own
story. They aim to give the customer the feeling of shopping in
an individually designed, very personal boutique. The decorative
and travel items and graffiti as well as the materials used (wood,
stone and steel) underline the authenticity of this lifestyle impression. The lighting design echoes the main themes consistently
and bathes the store in a warm loft atmosphere. The new concept can be adapted to suit shop-in-shop areas of just 50 m² as
well as own stores occupying over 1.000 m².

Sandro
Paris fashion label heading
for success
The French fashion label of the Parisian manufacturer Eveline
Chetrite originally came from the women’s outer clothing sector and targets modern customers aged between 25 and 40. In
2007 Sandro launched the men’s fashion brand, which at the
time had the same name. In the meantime, a children’s collection rounds out the palette. Sandro is positioned in the upper
middle market sector and is currently making its successful
mark on the international retail world. In 2009 alone 32 new
branches and corners were opened. 30 further brand launches
are to follow in 2010. The fusion with the two fashion labels
Maje and Claudie Pierlot under the common umbrella of the
Sandro Group is providing an additional impetus. The group’s
new branch concept is to be introduced for the winter season
2010/11. SHOP aktuell took a look at the store in Geneva, which
was opened in March.

The shop appeals to customers with its lightness of product
presentation. The shelves remain completely in the background
and present the collections perfectly. In line with the rules of
play for premium visual merchandising, only a small number of
selected items are presented on the trendy tables in the centre
of the store. Suspended ceiling elements with integrated spots
and indirect lighting provide professional background light as
well as appropriate accents.
Contrasts of materials and colours as well as the elegant presentation of
the products give the Sandro store in Geneva an exclusive air and create at
the same time a cosy atmosphere.

Sales tables
Text
Hubert Gasthaus, Reinhard Peneder
For centuries table presentation has played an important role –
as in Oriental markets and bazaars to this day.
Sometimes tables in the central area
can be used to create an independent
sales landscape.
Table presentations frequently provide
the introduction to a complete visual
merchandising concept which extends
from the loop to the wall.
Table
Tables as items of furniture for the presentation of goods of all kinds have a traditional significance
in sales culture. To this day our senses are held in thrall by this form of presentation in oriental
bazaars and medieval markets. In modern visual merchandising, too, tables play a decisive role in
secretly seducing the consumer.

Tables can also convey a
message which demonstrates
luxury and good taste.
Tables – whether delicate or elegant –
form a fitting setting for accessories of
all kinds.

Classic sales tables, display tables and exhibition tables, not
to mention squares, piles, stepped tables and pyramid tables,
are all common types of tables. The variety continues in the
shape of the horizontal section, the design of the foot, the
SHOP aktuell 108
height, materials, colours and design. Table programmes often
form part of manufacturers’ shopfitting systems. The trend,
however – as in shopfittings in general – is towards customerspecific and brand-specific solutions.

Sales tables
Sales tables are also ideally suited to
providing a secure way of presenting shoes.
The difference in goods density signalises
the price message.
If glass is used for sales tables,
they become display tables. Ideal
for high-quality ranges such as
watches and jewellery.
The form of presentation on the table can include positioning the goods upright or horizontally, stacking them or simply
piling them. Further variations may arise in combination with
plinths or baskets. Tables can often be found as effective ways
40
umdasch shop-concept
of arousing interest that act as a signpost in the entrance areas
of (large) stores. In many cases they form an essential part of
the overall goods presentation which extends from the loop via
the centre of the space (tables, baskets) to the walls (shelves).

Sales tables
For electronics articles and hardware,
tables are sometimes fitted out with
additional features.
In book and PBS retailing,
sales tables are a classic way of
presenting goods, and are often
used to arouse the customer’s
interest in the entrance area.

Like Louis Vuitton and other top luxury labels, Prada resides in exclusive Bond Street.
From the aristocratic West
End to elegant Westfield
London is traditionally one of the top addresses for trend scouts in the retail and shopfitting business.
A number of extremely interesting new projects have opened recently in the British capital. SHOP aktuell took
a look round the elegant West End and then at what is currently one of the world’s most spectacular shopping
centres – Westfield London. There was little evidence here of the crisis or the consumer recession; instead, the
tour offered numerous trends in the sector of store branding, shop design and visual merchandising.
Numerous international brands and retail brands, especially from the United States, first launch their products onto the
European market in London. Only if they pass this “test” in the
British Isles will they adapt it as required before multiplying it

for expansion on to the continent. Abercrombie & Fitch chose
this particular course of action, as did Hollister. And Anthropologie is yet another glittering American brand which is currently

national and international chain stores from a range of sectors. Here you will mostly find the current generation of shops
targeting a trendy, fashion-conscious clientèle with average to
discriminating tastes. But countless thousands of tourists also
bustle through this shopping paradise. In addition to a number
of flagship stores like that of Nike, for example, you will also
find here most of the department stores and fashion stores in
the British capital: Selfridges, Marks & Spencer, John Lewis,
House of Fraser and Debenhams.
Especially in recent years Regent Street has positioned itself
as a leading European shopping street. Named after the
Prince Regent, who later became King George IV, it was built
between 1811 and 1825 as part of a grand boulevard. Following a series of ambitious town-planning renovation projects it
has now become an attractive stage between Piccadilly Circus
and Oxford Circus, especially for globally operating brands.
The continually growing parade of illustrious brands and stores
includes names like Benetton, Apple, Lacoste, Quiksilver, Gap,
Hugo Boss, Esprit, Bose, Calvin Klein, Gerry Weber, Burberry,
The Body Shop, Zara, Mango, Swarovski, Lush and Virgin …
in other words, primarily the “usual suspects” you are likely to find in other shopping metropolises. Another American
cult label, Anthropologie, recently joined the list with its first
store in Europe, occupying a sales area of some 1,000 m².

Westfield is certainly truly spectacular. This lies above all
in the dramatic glass roof construction, which links the
building complex together and guarantees visitors a surprising amount of daylight. The vast atrium is really very

The shopfitter of Regent Street
When it comes to integral branding, architecture, shop design
and visual merchandising, the shops in London are also absolutely among the best in the world. As in the United States, the
conception and realisation of shopfitting projects is extremely specialised in the United Kingdom. The network included
marketing professionals, branding agencies, architects and
designers as well as project managers, shopfitters and other
professionals. For some years now Umdasch Shop-Concept
has operated very successfully in this exciting environment
which creates a highly demanding market. The nerve centre of
all activities in the United Kingdom and Ireland can be found
in the Umdasch UK headquarters in Oxford. There Roman
Fussthaler organises a young, enthusiastic team of shopfitting
professionals. International retailers and brands in particular
call for a highly developed teamwork approach.
Top addresses like Abercrombie & Fitch, Esprit, Swarovski,
Levi’s and most recently Gant are among Umdasch’s customers in and around Regent Street alone. Roman Fussthaler is particularly proud of the long-standing co-operation with
the U.S. sports accessories giant Nike, whose UK flagship
store in Oxford Street has long achieved cult status. Umdasch
has played an important part as shopfitters in the systematic
re-design of this temple of consumerism, which has taken place
in several stages. However, the co-operation with Nike goes far
beyond the London location, as the latest examples in Paris and
South Africa demonstrate. Further projects show that the list of
references of Umdasch Shop-Concept UK extends far beyond
Regent Street. Umdasch has fitted out a number of shops in
the exclusive department stores Harrods, Selfridges and Harvey Nichols. Its customers include famous brands like Polo
Ralph Lauren (fashion) and Habitat (furniture and home accessories). In Ireland the company’s recent projects include Arnotts
department store and the fashion chain Best Menswear. For the top brand Gant Umdasch Shop-Concept provided the shopfitting for the flagship store in Regent Street in London across an area of 780 m².

neben Werten und Kapital, im Innersten
zusammenhält, entdecken.
Das Team der Umdasch Shop Academy ist bereits mit der Detailplanung für
dieses Projekt beschäftigt. An der EuroShop in Düsseldorf wird es dazu bereits
konkrete Informationen und Unterlagen
geben. Unverbindliche Voranmeldungen werden ab sofort unter der E-Mail-
Adresse [email protected]
entgegengenommen. Im Jahr 2011 führen die klassischen „Laden-Dramaturgie

24. Oktober). Diese Veranstaltungen können bereits gebucht werden.
The Umdasch Shop Academy is
planning an incredible “Laden-Dramaturgie LIVE!” (Shop Dramaturgy LIVE!)
Shop Expedition for 2013.

2013 D r. Chr istia n
Mikunda and Mag.
D e nise MikundaSchulz will lead a
g r o u p “A r o u n d t h e
shopping world in 18
days”. The destinations of
the round-the-world tour will be Frankfurt
am Main, Miami, the giga-liner Oasis of
the Seas (with stops in Haiti and Jamaica), Los Angeles, Hong Kong, Macau,
Singapore and Abu Dhabi. The journey
will present the current status of shop
dramaturgy during the 21st century as
well as showing and explaining the most
spectacular phenomena of the “Experience Economy”. The participants will
discover a secret hoard of experiences
that spans the globe and holds it together in its innermost core, alongside values
and capital.
The Umdasch Shop Academy team is
already busily planning the details of this
project. Concrete information and material
will be available at the EuroShop in Düsseldorf. Non-binding preliminary applications
to join the group can already be registered
under the following e-mail address: shop.
[email protected]. In 2011 the traditional “Laden-Dramaturgie LIVE!” shop
expeditions will be travelling to Shanghai (25 – 28 May) and Las Vegas (20 – 24
October). Reservations for places on these
events are already being accepted.
Das Kreuzfahrtschiff „Oasis of the Seas“
beherbergt das größte schwimmende
Shopping-Center der Welt und ist deshalb einer
der Schauplätze von „In 18 Tagen um die
Shopping-Welt“. The cruise ship “Oasis of the
Seas” houses the largest floating shopping
centre in the world and is therefore one of the
settings for the journey “In 18 Tagen um die
Shopping-Welt” (“Around the shopping world in
18 days”).
New seminars: Multi-channel
Retailing and Neuro-Marketing
Two exciting new seminar formats have
already been added to the Umdasch Shop
Academy programme for 2011. Increasing
numbers of retailers are recognising the
need for a multi-channel strategy in order
to increase the profitability of a company –
even if it is just a well-produced website.
The seminar “Multi Channel Retailing für
Anfänger und Fortgeschrittene“ (Multichannel retailing for beginners and the
more advanced) will be devoted to this
very subject. The lecturers will be Dr. Kai
Hudetz from the E-commerce retailing
centre of the Institute for Retail Research
at the University of Cologne. “Neuro-Mar48
umdasch shop-concept
keting für Handels-Praktiker” (Neuro-marketing for those in retail practice) is the title
of a seminar with Dr. Hans-Georg Häusel
from the Nymphenburg Group. Häusel,
who is the author of numerous books, is
regarded in the German speaking region
as the pioneer of this relatively new marketing discipline. Both events will be held in
Germany, Austria and Switzerland. Details
concerning precise dates will be available at the end of this year on the website
www.umdasch-shop-concept.com (SHOP
ACADEMY) and elsewhere.
Dr. Kai Hudetz is a sought-after expert on
E-commerce and multi-channel retailing.

Der Supermarkt der Zukunft
The supermarket of the future
Das „Smart Shelf“ erfüllt spielerisch die Anforderung der
Konsumenten nach Produkt-Transparenz. The “Smart Shelf” fulfils in
a playful way the customer’s demands for product transparency.
Assmann Ladenbau präsentierte beim
Regal-Branchentreff am 14. Juni 2010 in
Wien im Rahmen der Sonderschau „Der
Supermarkt der Zukunft“ zwei viel beachtete nachhaltige Produkt-Innovationen.
In Zusammenarbeit mit dem Campus 02
ist das „Green Shelf“, das Regal mit dem
kleinsten ökologischen Fußabdruck, entstanden. Das Assmann-Innovationsteam
beschäftigt sich im Rahmen dieses Projektes nicht nur mit „green materials“
(Holz, Bambus, Karton, Bananenstrunke,
Schilf etc.), sondern auch mit Bio-Kunststoffen, umweltfreundlichen Oberflä-
Bambus, Karton, Bananenstrunke und Schilf
sind Fachboden-Optionen beim „Green Shelf“.
Bamboo, cardboard, banana stalks and reed are
the shelving options available in the “Green
Shelf” system.

chenbeschichtungen und
logistischen Themen.Kritische Verbraucher werden
mit dem „Smart Shelf“
viel Freude haben. Das
zusammen mit INFOOD
und Joanneum Research
entwickelte Regal ermöglicht einen HerkunftsCheck der präsentierten
Artikel via integriertem
Scanner und Bildschirm.
Den Konsumenten werden damit unmittelbar am
POS schlüssige Informationen über die Produkte (botanische Qualität,
agrarische Herkunft, Produktionsherkunft etc.) vermittelt. Dazu ist es lediglich notwendig, das mit
einem 2D-Code-Etikett
versehene Produkt vor
den Scanner zu halten.
Within the framework of the special
display “The Supermarket of the Future”
in Vienna on 14 June 2010, Assmann Ladenbau presented two sustainable product
innovations at the shelving section meeting that attracted a good deal of favourable
attention. The “Green Shelf”, the shelving
system with the smallest ecological footprint, was created in connection with the
Campus 02. Within the framework of this
project the innovation team at Assmann
studies not only “green” materials (wood,
bamboo, cardboard, banana stems, reeds
etc.), but also biological plastics, environmentally friendly surface coatings and
logistics topics.
Critical consumers will welcome the
“Smart Shelf”. Developed together with
INFOOD and Joanneum Research, the
shelf permits a check on the origins of the
articles presented via an integrated scanner and screen. The customer thus has
instantly available at the POS information
to enable him to make a decision about the
products (botanical quality, agricultural origin, manufacturing origin etc.). To discover all this, all that is required is to hold the
product and its 2D code label in front of
the scanner.
Professional
optimisation of
branch networks
in Salzburg
Mag. Traindl
Dr. Mayer-Heinisch
The correlation
between the quality of the location
and the productivity of the sales area
Mag. Lindner
is a widely accepted fact. Nonetheless this connection is
too little regarded in strategic planning.
The workshop “Professionelle Standortund Filialnetzoptimierung” (Professional
optimisation of location and branch networks) will enable participants to close
this “strategic gap” with the help of tried
and tested as well as new methods,
including the “POS trilogy”. The team
of lecturers includes a retail expert with
practical experience of branch networks
(Dr. Stephan Mayer-Heinisch, whose
current positions include the presidency of the Austrian Chamber of Retail
Trade), a branding specialist (Mag. Arndt Traindl, Retail Branding) and a location professional (Mag. Hannes Lindner, Standor t+Mark t), who together
will ensure an all-round approach to
the subject. The event targets expansion directors and retail professionals
throughout the entire German-speaking area. For this reasons the workshop
has been located in Salzburg, an easily accessible destination, on 19 October 2010. Full details of the seminar and
further information can be obtained from
[email protected] (Tel.

Mit „PAYBACK“ beweist Frank Schirrmacher erneut
sein Gespür für die Auseinandersetzung mit Megathemen unserer Zeit. In dieser Neuerscheinung
dreht sich alles um die digitale Überforderung, der
wir dank iPhone, Facebook & Co ausgesetzt sind.
Anhand wissenschaftlicher Erkenntnisse zeigt
Schirrmacher auch erste Lösungsansätze aus dem
Dilemma. Diese lauten: Kreativität, Toleranz und die
Fähigkeit, mit Unberechenbarem umzugehen.

Green is for hope, red is for love … this publication
adds a new dimension to the familiar rules of colour
theory. To this end more than 60 test persons produced atmospheric pictures to match 360 adjectives
which the author then assigned to the RAL Design
System. Each of the colour scales thus produced
shows the extent to which colours can be used as
instruments of expression or language. The result is
this new colour Bible for designers and design artists.
