Retail Support in Hampshire
Countywide retail merchandising and store support across Hampshire.
Our Hampshire coverage runs from Southampton out to Basingstoke and the surrounding towns, bringing the same standards across the whole county rather than concentrating on a single city.
Retail support across Hampshire
Hampshire mixes a major city, several substantial market towns, and a large rural hinterland — which means the retail environments our teams work in vary considerably across the county. From Southampton's large-format stores to independent retailers in smaller Hampshire towns, coverage adapts to what each site actually needs rather than applying a single approach county-wide.
Countywide coverage, locally applied
Covering the whole of Hampshire doesn't mean treating every job the same way. A market town independent retailer needs a different visit plan to a Southampton retail park unit — different stockroom sizes, different access, different customer footfall patterns. What stays consistent is the standard: photo-verified completion, fixed pricing, and a team that's briefed against your specific requirements rather than a generic template.

Questions about Hampshire coverage
We currently cover Dorset, Hampshire and Wiltshire, including Bournemouth, Poole, Christchurch and Southampton, with plans to extend nationally.
For standard merchandising and reset work we typically confirm a team within 24-48 hours. Urgent overnight cover can often be arranged faster, subject to availability.
Yes. Every job is completed with before/after photo evidence and a written completion report sent within 24 hours of the visit.
All contractors are vetted before their first assignment and hold relevant right-to-work documentation on file.
Yes, overnight and out-of-hours work is one of our core services, designed to avoid any disruption to trade.
We agree a fixed price before any work starts, based on store count, team size, hours and travel. You will not receive a surprise hourly bill.
The quoted price is fixed regardless of how long the job actually takes, provided the scope has not changed. If something on site means the brief needs to change, we agree that with you before continuing.
Both. We work with single-store independents, regional chains, and brands needing work done in stores they do not operate themselves.
Standard bookings are typically confirmed within 24-48 hours. Urgent or overnight work can often be arranged faster depending on team availability.
Let us know as early as possible. We ask for reasonable notice where possible, but we understand retail schedules change and will always try to accommodate a reschedule.
Yes, all team members carry identification and wear clothing appropriate to the job and store requirements, which we can confirm with you before the visit.
Yes. We work from whatever brief, planogram or standards document you provide rather than a generic template, so the output matches your specific requirements.
A minimum charge applies to any single booking to cover the fixed costs of a visit, but there is no minimum store count or contract length beyond that.
Both. Many clients start with a one-off job and move to a regular arrangement once they see how it works; others book one-off support as needed.
Merchandising is the ongoing work of keeping shelves compliant, stocked and correctly priced. A reset is a specific, larger project rebuilding a section or category to a new plan. We offer both.
Always your planogram or work pack. We execute the plan you provide rather than making layout decisions ourselves.
Yes, subject to team size and travel between sites, which is factored into the quote.
Overnight work carries a standard shift loading reflected in the quote, but it is priced the same way as daytime work otherwise — no separate booking process or hidden fee.
Access and alarm procedures are agreed directly with the store manager before the visit, as part of the booking process.
Yes, our standard process sends photo evidence and a written summary the same morning, before opening.
Discontinued stock is separated and clearly labelled for return, clearance or disposal as agreed with you in advance, rather than left in the stockroom.
Yes — this is common. We flag the mismatch immediately rather than improvising, so you can decide how to proceed with full information.
It depends entirely on scope — a single-category move can take a few hours, a full store re-layout considerably longer. We quote based on your specific brief.
Yes, one-off backlog clearance is one of the most common reasons clients book stock movement support.
Ideally as much as possible — a changeover pack arriving weeks ahead gives far better results than one arriving days before the deadline. That said, we can often accommodate shorter notice depending on scale.
We schedule promotional changeovers to hit the agreed deadline precisely, including overnight if that is what the deadline requires.
Yes, we agree the checklist with you before the first visit so it measures what actually matters to your business rather than a generic template.
Yes, and this is where audits add the most value — comparing results across repeat visits shows whether standards are improving or slipping, not just a single snapshot.
This depends on team size and notice given, but we regularly support store openings and refits at relatively short notice — get in touch with your dates and we will confirm what is possible.
