Retail

FSM has always been popular within the retail sector. Over the years, we have supplied a range of retail shop fixtures to specialist retailer suppliers and shop fitting companies.

As our product knowledge has improved and we have gathered a greater understanding of the idiosyncrasies of retail, we became a much sought-after fabricator within this sector.

Our Capabilities

The retail supply industry caters to a very diverse range of clientele, from large chain stores to independent boutiques. By working alongside this industry, FSM have learnt to adapt to its manufacturing, methods, which has meant going from simple bracketry to putting together complete display stands.

Our services within this sector include:

What materials do we work with in retail fabrication?

We commonly work with the following metals when it comes to our sheet metal fabrication processes:

  • Mild steel
  • Stainless steel
  • Aluminium
  • Brass

Aesthetic value is especially important when it comes to retail fabrication which is why we provide our clients with an array of finishes to choose from for their retail fixtures.

Our work within this sector so far has been predominantly for the UK market, however in some cases our manufactured items have been delivered and installed overseas by our clients. Their global recognition has been helped because of the wide range of skills that our team of designers and engineers possess.

Why pick FSM

We understand that the retail industry differs from other sectors due to the fact that the success of retail businesses relies very heavily on the frequency of customers; so it is never ideal for retail doors to be closed for too long.

In order to cater to the strict conditions of this sector, FSM is able to offer the following:

  • Flexibility with project lead times
  • Ability to work to extreme deadlines with high-quality execution
  • Out-of-hours delivery times to minimise business closure times – also a beneficial option for clients who have a new store opening coming up

Working in the retail industry requires meticulous planning and a dedicated workforce on our side of things, and we can provide both because we care about providing our clients with the best solutions that sheet metal manufacturing has to offer.
