What are product pushers?
"Product pushers" or "shelf merchandizers" are spring-loaded accessories placed on each shelf to push all the products to the front of the fridge ("facing"). Facing helps your storefront look organized, stocked, tidy and attractive to enable a smooth and intuitive shopping experience.
Additionally, front-facing products improves the detection accuracy of the Micormart Vision System and as such, Micromart approved product pushers are required to be used in every Smart Store.
How do I know which product pushers I need?
Based on the products that you'd like to stock, Micromart will provide the appropriate product pushers for your Smart Fridge or Pantry. We take the guesswork out of the different spring forces, wall heights and numerous components required by kitting exactly what you need per shelf making installation and usage a breeze.
Simply tell your Micromart point-of-contact which products and planogram you'd like for your store, and we'll take care of the rest.
Micromart-approved product pushers are required to be used to ensure a great shopping experience and enhance vision system detection accuracy. Micromart will ship the appropriate pushers for your product selection.
