Also knowledge concerning variety versus commodity is key. Grocery stores carrying a wider variety of potato types see higher potato sales. A retail potato display should offer a balanced mix of many different types of fresh potatoes. Proper rotation, cleanliness and organized display fixtures are the core elements to an effective presentation. Signage packages and point of sale materials are also influential. An effective sign package and POS eliminates consumer confusion by showing differentiation, best usage, drives brand recognition and creates excitement within the section.
