A shipping container can offer your business a chance to have a temporary or long-term pop-up shop for your retail stores, restaurants, e-commerce business, farmers market, art gallery, or workshop. They can expand your customer base by being in another location that attracts more customers.
These shipping containers can be modified for special holiday seasons, located permanently at flea markets, special retail locations, parks, parking lots, or areas allowed in your town or city. A shipping container can make a great pop up shop to attract new customers, even at companies that sell clothing, houseware, computer equipment, or health products.
With more than five million shipping containers in motion right now, let’s explore how a pop up shop container can help your business grow.
Benefits of Pop Up Shop Containers
A pop up shop container can be customized to your business needs. It can be constructed quickly and be set up at the location you choose. It does not have to be rented like a retail space. You might have to pay rental fees when you set it up to the landlord or property owner. Containers are very secure and can help you stand out from the crowd, as they can be customized to your business needs.
Businesses That Can Use Pop Up Containers
When you own a restaurant, you can use a pop up shop container to set up a shop in a stadium, retail parking lot, park, flea market, downtown, or a unique location. It can be used all year to sell food and beverages. It will need to be connected to plumbing and electricity for you to run it. Plus, now you can have two locations to promote your restaurant. When you have an e-commerce store, a pop up shop container located near a mall or downtown can bring in new customers as well.
If you own a floral shop or gardening center, you can set up a pop up shop to sell seasonal items and have special promotions. An art gallery can promote local artists in another part of the town or city. When money is limited, a pop up shop container can be a great way to start your business and sell products. A permanent pop up shop container will establish your business and get you started while keeping costs down.
For farming and food vendors, a container can be set up on your property to sell produce year-round or at a local market. Companies that sell products can set up a container in their parking lot or location that attracts customers. Health facilities can have another location to help patients access needed services in the community.
With all of these business ideas in mind, consider obtaining a container for your own business needs. Be creative and make your shop stand out. Contact Integrated Equipment Sales today to learn more about containers for pop up shop purposes.
