How to Plan a Supermarket Layout: Gondola Runs, Wall Units and End Caps

Start with the floor plan and category list, then:

1. Place perimeter wall shelving (2000–2400 mm) for the highest-capacity categories.
2. Run double-sided gondolas (1600–2200 mm) perpendicular to the entrance; keep aisles 1.6–2.2 m in supermarkets, 1.2–1.5 m in convenience stores.
3. Cap every run with end caps for promotions.
4. Reserve open floor near the entrance for fresh islands and promotion tables.
5. Finish with checkout counters sized to peak traffic.
