Visual merchandising: A bibliometric analysis and future research proposals

Profile image of Ricardo Limongi

2020, Contextus –Contemporary Journal of Economics and Management

This work aimed to investigate the studies on visual merchandising in theoretical, methodological and empirical aspects. Bibliometric research was carried out based on 35 articles published in journals. The analyzes present the number of articles per year, main journals, most cited references, most used keywords, in addition to the methodology, considering the approach, research method, data collection and analysis technique. It was possible to conclude that the theme is relatively new, justifying an opportunity for future research. In this sense, a research agenda is proposed with three possible paths to be followed by future studies, namely: studies with a qualitative approach, comparison between different countries and comparison between sectors and intersector.

Reshaping has become a key phenomenon in all the spheres of business. The market, marketing strategies and market structure were simple to understand. With growing complexity, variety and emergence of new techniques at very short intervals resulted to increase the vibrancy in the overall business environment. Shopping by an individual at one time was need-based and also was mainly product-centric. The customer was mainly focusing on the price and other attributes of a product. With the increased range of products and developed customer attitude, proper display of the product holds the attention of the sellers. Eventually, they started putting more money and efforts on the display of the product in order to fetch the attention of the customers. The concept of VM ( Visual Merchandise) holds its roots way back to the days of barter system. Gradually with the emergence of the organized retail system in India, the emergence of Visual Merchandise has also got its mark. The present researc...

The points of sale are no longer a space where money is exchanged for a product or a service. The search for new sensations and engaging experiences is growing. In response to the consumer behavior indicated as a trend by the Trendwatching Latin America report entitled Retail Retold, in May 2014, this presents truck-shops as an alternative for retail. Truck-shops are moving trade models that use trucks or vans as point of sale. Since they consist in points of sale, they should follow visual merchandising projects as well. However, due the temporariness and mobility, there is a wider range of issues to be considered in the consumption experience in such spaces. Thus, we intended to approach how the premises of visual merchandising are applied to these trades without an established location. For that, we conducted: (1) a bibliographical research on visual merchandising and buying experience, (2) the Trendwatching’s trend description and interpretation, on top of (3) exploratory surveys on visual merchandising’s specificities applied to truck-shops. The study concluded that experimentation is magnified in truck-shops retail, since the locations’ choice extends the sensory stimuli – visual, auditory, olfactory and tactile -, in addition to the generation of different surprise attributes at each new chosen location, creating new brand’s memories. In contrast, as a negative aspect we point out inclement weather conditions can influence on the presence of consumers in open spaces.

Discussions about the components, definition and conceptual frame of merchandising are still ongoing in the literature. On the other hand, these uncertainties prevent the scientific deepening of merchandising. So, studies that determine the conceptual frame of merchandising have become necessary to remove the obstacles. In this context, this study aims to make a new comprehensive definition of the merchandising concept after a merchandising literature review. As a result, this study defined the merchandising concept as "a theory and practice that makes the consumers' sensations align with components of all online and physical stores –provided that it interactively complies with the monolith marketing strategiesto fulfil their purchasing behaviour. Finally, the suggested definition was separated and explained to support the approach of this study. So, this study suggests a new definition of the merchandising concept to enhance both practise and theory.
