I work for a grocery chain that isn't even aware that this product exists. After 11yrs I really wish you'd take another look at your marketing strategy.
I'm just here because I was finally curious about what the doohickey I've been using for a year was actually called. Also making sure I've been using it to its full potential, which I have. The biggest time saver I've found so far is fronting and facing wine bottles. Also, your dude in the video isn't using it to its full potential. You do a pair of rows, skip a space, then do another pair. 😎
This is a good idea, but I suspect that it doesn't work as well in the real world as it appears. When the "blocking Wand" appears in the video it's employed to front the product under nearly ideal circumstances. I would define ideal circumstances as plenty of room between items and uniformity of items immediately next to the items being fronted. For comparison, when the fronting is done by hand in the video, it's done with items of varying size and shape and with very little space in between those items. Retailers cram items together as close as possible (and often too close) to take advantage of every last inch of shelf space. Not a bad idea, but I think that this a misleading video for the reasons mentioned above.
Doesn't make sense to Me. What are your reasons exactly? LoL. And from someone who faces and blocks 5 nights a week.. it's a LOT more convenient AND smaller than using my hands and arms ☺️
Works fine, the ones at work even have rules printed on them for max stacking height and all. It's a multinational retail business, probably the biggest one, and they have them for a reason.
Its not its actually a useful tool. Some stores already use them. Ive used one a few times and they do actually get work done effectively. Your hand can’t always fit behind the product so this tool is when its most effective

I've never used a blocking wand,
It would have helped a lot.

My store has some version of it and it sucks. It was a good idea but doesnt work well in my store.

I do quarts of oil that are snug against each other with no problems.
The repeated stuff in the video really doesn't do it justice.
Would not work. Take more time and supplies would fall forward.
It's great for you, but it would not work for me.
This shit is so cheesy 😂
