On August 5, 2025, Alco Designs had the honor of exhibiting at the Grocers Supply Expo in Houston, TX. This annual event brings together independent grocers who are passionate about finding innovative solutions to strengthen their stores and better serve their communities.

From the moment the doors opened, our booth was a gathering place. Positioned right at the entrance and across from the produce merchandising area, we welcomed a steady stream of store owners, managers, and Produce Specialists eager to explore new ways to enhance their departments.

Bringing Merchandising to Life

Our displays highlighted Alco Designs’s commitment to visual merchandising that drives results. Attendees were especially drawn to:

  • Customizable Wrapped Bins – An adaptable, cost-effective solution that can be personalized with logos, seasonal graphics, and removable risers to fit any department.
  • Galvanized and Dry Table Fixtures – Durable, versatile options that give stores the flexibility they need to merchandise effectively in limited space.
  • Meat Department Solutions – From pans and organizers to custom signage kits, our tools help streamline operations while presenting products in a clean, professional way.

The excitement grew when customers saw fixtures fully merchandised—proof that the right display not only organizes products but also inspires purchases.

Trusted Partnerships That Make a Difference

One of the strongest takeaways from the Expo was the value of our ongoing partnerships. By collaborating closely with Produce Specialists, we were able to connect with the right stores, learn about their specific challenges, and provide tailored solutions on the spot.

This kind of teamwork is what sets Alco Designs apart—we don’t just provide fixtures, we deliver strategies that help retailers compete, thrive, and make the most of their merchandising investments.

Looking Ahead

The Grocers Supply Expo reaffirmed what we know to be true: visual merchandising is key. For independent grocers, every square foot matters, and the right fixture can transform a department into a customer magnet.

We’re excited to continue building on the connections made at the show and to partner with more retailers who are ready to elevate their stores with fresh, durable, and innovative merchandising solutions.

At Alco Designs, our mission is simple: help retailers bring their fresh departments to life.
