Bearing up at the chandlers
01 Apr 2008
But although an essential service, the whole thing had become uneconomic, fiddly, and a drain on time and patience to keep stocked and tidy.
On top of which, customers had a habit of wanting to find particular kind of screw or bolt in a hurry... So, enter the bear.
Big Bear Supplies agreed to take over the Pascall Atkey display and repackage over 6,000 screws, bolts, nuts and washers – a considerable audit and remerchandising undertaking spread over several days. But worth it for both parties.
The result for Pascall Atkey has been a move to a self selection display with clearly labelled, durable and re-closable packs, and for Big Bear it means a chance to introduce its product range in an established Cowes chandlers.
