PopSockets 4-Way Fixture for Walmart

2023 Shop! OMA Awards
• Gold, Personal Electronics and Software – Temporary

Unique Concept
The main objective focused on a customized phone grip display that would hold a variety of product choices and fit on a Walmart 4-Way fixture. To drive awareness and ROI, the display had to leverage key brand attributes, appeal to shoppers, and maximize in-store effectiveness. The brand wanted simplicity to attract, engage, and convert shoppers.

Continual Collaboration
Collaboration led to the design of the display to arrive fully assembled, easy to lift, and placed on the bottom shelf of a 4-Way Walmart fixture. Once positioned, the display was about 42″ tall and easily visible to shoppers. To differentiate and increase attraction, the team added a dimensional element to the display. The dimensional border around the product suggested the shape of a cell phone. This would draw attention to the graphics and product while promoting the brand. An angled base provided visibility to the branding when approached by shoppers.

Engaging Design
The team leveraged the brand’s primary color, black, on key locations of the display to meet the objectives and drive engagement. The base created contrast and eye fixation on the brand logo. The black inner product cell provided contrast and fixation on the product planogram. The use of black on the vertical instruction panel highlighted instruction and pricing. The side panel brand logo provided strong visibility to the brand.

Through customer collaboration, leveraging insights, and strong design activation, the display helped the client drive and validate a new POP Display concept at retail. The display maximized ROI and increased product sell-through. As a result, the customer has ordered multiple refreshes of the program since the initial program launch.
