Digital Signage Creates an Engaging Shopping Experience
Statistics show that digital signage for grocery stores helps to boost sales by attracting shoppers with beautiful imagery and videos. A study conducted by Stockholm School of Economics on the impact of digital displays in hypermarkets revealed that sales experienced an immediate 17% bounce after the displays were installed.
As such, many grocers have shifted from using static promotional signs to remotely managed digital signage for their grocery stores. 94% of retailers use or have used digital signage to augment, change, or improve in-store customer experiences.
