“We worked with Lighting for Impact to design an LED merchandising solution for our new store’s HBA department. The LED undershelf lighting makes the department feel light and bright – making it more inviting for our shoppers to browse and shop. The LED header panels highlight category location enabling shoppers to easily navigate to categories on their lists. Lighting for Impact was a great partner to Big Y helping us through selecting the right LED components to helping us install at the store. We couldn’t be happier with the results!”

“Providing our customers a great experience at checkout is mission critical at Food Lion. We decided to install LED lighting on our checkout fixtures in 2015, and have done so ever since. Simply put, the LED lighting brightened our shopper’s experience and lifted sales.” Recently, we illuminated our new Grab and Go area near the checkouts with LED lighting. That too was a big success. LED lighting is a cost-effective way to drive home our point of difference in our stores.”

“The lighting that was installed in the store really helped enhance the bottles and the packaging of — especially our private label items. I think it draws more attention and gives it a cleaner look. When those items are highlighted, it draws the customer to the product – so I really believe that illuminating the product is a draw, and aesthetically — it’s a lot better. It was really easy to put up and assemble, so very user-friendly and I think it’s a home run!”
Angel Cordero
Store Manager, Giant Heirloom Market

They have many options to attach with clips and magnets that you don’t even notice any wiring. They are easy to adjust as sets change. They are very responsive and quick to ship and install. We will continue to do business with them.”

Quotes from Retail Thought Leaders
“Lighting should be a top priority in store design to enhance the retail environment and highlight products. Because lighting can single-handedly influence the mood of the shopping environment, retailers must understand how they can use lighting to shape their customer experience.”
Ron Lutz

“Light your display like it’s important! Remember, light makes the merchandise pop.”
Bob Phibbs
The Retail Doctor
“Lighting is important in any retail shop, but it’s particularly critical in tight quarters. If a corner of your store is not well lit, that square footage is as good as lost.”
Libby Langdon
Interior Designer

Mihaly Bartha

“Can retail lighting boost sales? Absolutely! Yes! We worked with a big European retailer, and they saw their sales go up 40 percent. We worked with a retailer on Bond Street and their sales went up 17 percent. So yes, is the short answer.
Paul Nulty
Lighting Designer, Founder of Nulty
“Research has shown customers select twice as many items from shelving with integrated lighting, than those with none.”

“Lighting has a direct influence on our mood, with 80 percent of the sensory information the brain receives coming from our eyes. Lighting highlights architectural elements, product qualities and creates virtual spaces — impacting how we feel, what we think of a product — and ultimately the choice of whether to purchase or not.”
Mihaly Bartha
Head of Lighting at GPstudio
“Retail lighting is all about the psychology and sociology of lighting design, and if it’s done well, a retailer will be able to see this in their bottom line.”
Paul Nulty
Lighting Designer, Founder of Nulty
“Lighting is a crucial element that often goes unnoticed by store owners. Customers will have varying degrees of satisfaction with their shopping experiences under various lighting schemes. Your bottom line will thank you for being aware of this.”
