Effective aisle end in a local WH Smith store

isleendCheck out the aisle end I saw in a WH Smith shop in Sydney last week. This is the same style as one from Europe I wrote about six weeks ago. What most newsagents make decisions and manage their businesses from their local perspective.

I am posting this photo today as evidence of the global nature of the WH Smith business and to highlight the challenges and opportunities ow very close to our homes.

WH Smith is bringing to their Australian retail operations knowledge and experience from their worldwide operation. This will change the Australian newsagency model.

The more locally engaged and shopper enticing our newsagencies the better prepared we are for competition of any type.

    So I wonder if the old Supanews franchisees have to incur shop refit costs to reflect WH Smith brand?
