Retail Bay
Retail Bay focuses on illuminated branding inside store bays and temporary shopping centre trading spaces. The aim is a fabric lightbox display that looks tidy in customer view and can be re-skinned without turning a weekly campaign change into a drawn-out fitment.
How Retail Bay works in-store each week
Retail Bay is built for branded lightbox displays inside store bays and shopping centre trading spaces. It suits fabric lightboxes that need to look clean on the shop floor and stay simple to re-skin for new campaigns.
Begin with the bay opening, frame depth, graphic dimensions, and the nearest power source. Centre rules, access times, ceiling bulkheads, and stock movement around the bay all influence the layout. Work in Gauteng, Durban, Cape Town, and regional centres often needs clear photos of the actual trading spot before production is signed off.
Take wide and close site photos before any frame size is confirmed. Include one record of the bay width, nearby shopfronts, and how customers pass the display. That reference helps when fabric graphics are replaced later and the original fitment team is not on site.
Store-bay install pack
A Retail Bay project usually needs one settled specification, not multiple versions of the same idea. Frame size, face fabric, power feed, and mounting method should all be written down against the exact bay location. That gives centre staff, installers, and brand teams one shared reference when graphics change.
Check frame sections, LED runs, printed fabric, and fixings before dispatch to site. If the bay includes hanging elements, confirm the suspension points and any centre approval records at the same time.
- Bay layout matched to the trading space
- Site photos logged before production starts
- Centre and bay details captured clearly
Mall trading conditions
Retail Bay work needs planning around centre access hours, loading bays, tenant rules, and trading periods that limit on-site time. Existing kiosks, shopfitting, or old display hardware can also affect where a new lightbox sits. If there is current wiring or a previous frame in the bay, note it early so the new display is measured correctly.
Coastal air can mark aluminium and increase cleaning on illuminated faces near entrances. Inland dust builds up on frame channels and diffusers, especially in high-traffic mall passages. Load-shedding also matters, because a switched-on check is the only reliable way to assess light spread across the printed fabric.

Retail Bay brief checklist
Send the bay width, overall height available, centre name, trading hours, and clear site photos with the brief. Mention whether the display is free-standing, wall-fixed, or fitted into existing shopfitting. Any restrictions on drilling, suspended elements, or after-hours access should be noted at the start.
Record the final site note while the bay condition and access arrangement are still fresh. Keep that together with frame sizes, fabric artwork versions, and any power notes for the next campaign change. It makes later re-skins easier when different teams handle print, dispatch, and installation.
