Awarded the Design Of the Year multiple times from both POPAI and the Path To Purchase Institute, Design Phase is at the forefront of positioning point of purchase as the leading channel in reaching consumers and changing the way we look at the evolving consumer experience at retail. how Phase does it, visit www.dphase.com WithTo 25see years of Design experience in producing some of the most successful and effective point of purchase programs for the world’s largest brands, Design Phase applies a dynamic approach in generating creative design concepts that combine a brand strategy with innovative technology, state of the art engineering and quality manufacturing. DESIGN PHASE LAUNCHES INNOVATIVE POINT-OF-PURCHASE DISPLAY PROGRAM FOR KEURIG GREEN MOUNTAIN’S REVOLUTIONARY KEURIG KOLD™ OUR CAPABILITIES Design Phase’s long-standing relationships with their clients and retailers is at the core of their success. Understanding and incorporating their clients’ overall marketing objectives into each design, Design Phase understands the many factors that are included in the consumer decision process at retail. Keurig Green Mountain, the company that pioneered the single serve hot brewer market, hired Design Phase to produce a point of purchase program for their new product launch of the Keurig Kold brewer appliance. From the look and feel of a display, which reinforces the brand’s image by the choice of colors, material, lighting and contour, each design is specifically customized to produce a finished product reflecting the brand’s personality. Hailed as a technological marvel, the Keurig Kold system needed an extensive display program to introduce this new product line and differentiate it from the Keurig Hot brewer product line. Their designs are created with the consumer in mind and a keen understanding of attracting attention in the dynamic retail environment. By creating a visually appealing display and incorporating an interactive component, Design Phase understands how to engage consumers. Design Phase developed a contemporary look to reflect the product’s image and engage customers with innovative design features. This included a clear acrylic base at the bottom of the product which highlighted the product and gave it a “cold” feeling to reinforce the cold brewing system. Ramped up signage on both sides of the product – at counter level – displayed product information, and a specially designed floating feature of the beverage pods added to the contemporary look with a 3D effect. An LED header and eye-catching product photos further grabbed the consumers’ attention. Taking the concept into the engineering phase, Design Phase utilizes state of the art technology including LED lighting, RFID applications and the latest in electronic componentry to produce displays that are at the forefront of today’s evolving retail experience. By effectively using the latest in material from exclusive woods, selected metals, abrasion resistant acrylic, to clear polycarbonate, their emphasis on producing displays with an eye-catching and seamless look is an integral part of the successful manufacturing process. Design Phase produced an extensive retail program, which included 800 units in multiple display options including end caps, floor units, counter units, and inline. The display was featured in 10 different retail outlets ranging from Grocery Stores, to Big Box retailers and Specialty Stores. Design Phase works closely with retailers to ensure that the program is effectively executed at the store level. Having established long-standing relationships with all major retailers, they understand the requirements necessary to implement an effective retail strategy by designing to certain specifications and creating a display that is easy to assemble and maintain. The modular design, customized for easy installation for wire shelving, face deck, and counter top display, was engineered with inter-changeable parts to fit various retail requirements and provide a cost efficiency to the client. Managing this process from concept to delivery is at the heart of Design Phase’s ability to provide their clients with some of the most successful displays in the industry.

Q&A WITH DAVID ANZIA Senior Vice President Frank Mayer and Associates, Inc. Q Today’s customer shops through many different channels. How do you elevate the in-store experience to influence shopping behavior? A By giving the customer a reason to go to the retail store. Shoppers cannot truly experience the product at home in front of a computer or tablet. An effective solution provides the consumer with that tactile experience, the ability to touch, feel and interact with the product. Shoppers want to try on that $300 pair of headphones to comprehend the comfort and sound that will elicit an emotion or response to ultimately influence purchase. Successful solutions create that experience that can only happen at the store level. Q Q As a leader in the industry tell us about your business philosophy. What differentiates your company from other competitors in the industry? From day one our business philosophy has been building and establishing client relationships. For us, it’s not just being a supplier or vendor, it’s about being a true partner with our clients throughout the cycle of their program and beyond.

We consistently deliver cost savings of 10-20% in the first year and 3-5%+ on an ongoing basis. We do this by attacking costs within each supply chain bucket and by looking across the supply chain to increase process efficiency and leverage fulfillment (e.g. consolidations) and transportation management (inbound and outbound) to lower costs while maintaining, and often improving, quality.

The Guide to P-O-P Design & Manufacturing • 2016 ADVERTISEMENT UDFC.COM UNIVERSAL’S APPROACH IDENTIFY PAIN POINTS – The starting point is identifying the “nuggets” of opportunity for improvement in our customers’ merchandising strategies and market execution. CASE STUDY: TASTE SOMETHING FUN PROFIT ENDCAP Taste Something Fun Profit Endcap was designed, engineered, and manufactured for Frito-Lay as a destination endcap to generate incremental sales separate from their other displays in-store. Universal designed this display to be a speed bump or a disruptor in the regular shopping pattern. The endcap seizes customers’ attention, stopping them in their tracks to make the sale. The destination opens to the left or to the right, allowing for greater positioning options in-store and more engagement with the shopper. DEFINE SUCCESS – We ask each customer what success looks like for them and help to establish their merchandising strategy, plan and objectives. RESEARCH KEENLY – We get out in the market to see what is actually happening. We study the retail landscape and identify opportunities for our customers. DESIGN BOLDLY – Our in-house designers create original concepts or refine existing ideas. We are not afraid to push “outside the box” to deliver creative solutions that exceed expectations. DEVELOP EFFICIENTLY – We design with the end in mind from the beginning, considering materials, process, and implementation to ensure success at retail. EXECUTE FLAWLESSLY – Strategically located facilities provide global production, warehousing, and distribution options for successful in-store execution. Towering at 93 inches tall and 48 inches wide, it is angled, allowing the shopper to see all three sides at once. The header, adorned with the slogan “Taste Something Fun”, rests on a yellow edge lit acrylic which beckons consumers to the destination to view the product offerings. The protruding, rounded countertop can be used as a sampling area, placement for additional product, or a location for a digital tablet featuring FritoLay related news. The Taste Something Fun Profit Endcap was placed in grocers across the US and has been a win-win for both the brand and the shopper. WHAT OUR PARTNERS SAY “The ultimate partnership.
