Australian shoppers were not as won over by the charms of a middle aisle as they expected. Given the choice two thirds still journeyed around the store using the racetrack method.
Indeed, the angst levels of some shoppers actually went up in aisle break stores, Dr Page told news. However, they found middle aisle stores led to a higher number of smaller basket shops and people zipped in and out the supermarket quicker. More than half of shoppers in central aisle supermarkets left within 15 minutes compared to 38 per cent of people in standard supermarkets. Although, shoppers generally spent the same amount of cash in either store.
Surprisingly there was no increase in customers buying specials despite their being double the endcaps to display them. He added there might be many reasons why shoppers chose a certain path in the supermarkets or spend a certain amount and so the results in the stores with a central aisle may not be down to that feature alone. A Woolworths spokeswoman confirmed to news. A Coles spokesman told news.

Some of the biggest supermarket changes over the past few decades have been in the areas of fresh produce, meat, poultry, seafood and dairy. From the rise in organic and free-range options to wider selections of fresh local fruit and vegetables, the perimeters of supermarkets have evolved to cater to our desire for healthier food choices.
He said the rise of online shopping alternatives meant that when customers made the decision to visit a supermarket, they did so for the experience and wanted their grocery shopping to be as enjoyable as possible. The increase in space has been made possible by shallower shelving that can be easily rearranged and upright freezers that allow customers to see products more easily. One of the biggest reasons for the redesign was to create more space for fresh produce, meat, seafood and dairy as well as other healthy food options.
Changes to product merchandising throughout the store have also made it easier for customers to find what they want and need. Mr Lawlor said customers would now find dried fruit and nuts near cereal, baking goods in one spot instead of several and meat and produce at the front of all refurbished stores. It features expanded fresh food, ready-to-go meals and health offerings, overhauled bakery, deli, butcher and seafood areas, and a dedicated front-of-store pick-up area for online shopping orders.
