Supermarket | Intra Lighting
 
 
Why is lighting 
in a supermarket 
so important?
 

Living in a time when the experience of shopping started to compete with a coziness of ordering online, light became a crucial aspect of planning new shops. The development of new technologies gave us a chance to lower energy consumption and increase the sales. But shopping is, after all, an activity experienced with five senses, and as such commonly questioned what way is the right one. There is just a way, that simply suits your customers. Let us find it.

Questions to ask before you start:
How do you want your customers to feel?
What is the philosophy of your supermarket chain?
What do you want to highlight? 

 
 
01 Fresh & healthy
 

What you see is what you buy.

Accent light should always be one of the characteristics of this area. Lighting designers recommend lowering general lighting in this area and adding spotlights to create more atmosphere and focus.

02 Tasty flavours

When it looks so good you simply can't resist ...

Special products require a special treatment. Lower ceilings are a common feature of this area, and for this reason, the use of recessed lights is usually the best choice. Beside that choosing, the lighting that doesn’t affect the quality of the products is also one of the things that cannot be ignored.

Cheese
___________
Is the best cheese really yellow?
Actually no. Cheese is a light-sensitive product, which can be affected by inappropriate lighting that reflects in changing taste, damaging its nutrients and turning the color yellow. You should consider lowering the general light in this area and use focused lights with contrasts instead. 
 
 
 
Meat
______
How do you keep it fresh?
We keep it in a refrigerator and so do the stores. But it is true, that using a minimal distortion in the special vivid light source can make the meat look even tastier. A little bit of pink never hurt anybody and so does the light, but it is needless to say it should be done at the right amount. You don’t want your customers to feel misled.

Something flexible like linear lighting or lights on track.

Cashiers
___________
Do cashier sections and information desk get a special attention?
Of course. Besides being on everybody's eyes, a cashier section is a working place that should create a pleasant environment for workers and customers. Cashier sections, information desks and other places where specific tasks are provided should have a high level of illumination, which minimizes mistakes and optimizes a positive final experience.

Use light to navigate your customers to the cashier desk. This is a perfect place to inspire and make the customers spontaneously buy chewing gum, sweets, magazines or beverages.

05 Behind the scenes
 

Behind the scenes, the lighting should be first and foremost functional. You should always make sure to provide a sufficient light, such as general lighting that tolerates temperature changes. Reduce your costs by using presence detectors that increase lighting only when someone needs it, and turn off when no one is around.

Just because it's hidden, doesn't mean it's not important.
Besides the fact that light influences the personal well-being and health, it also impacts on motivation and performance. To have all this together, you have to find just the right combination of ceiling fixtures, table lights, floor lamps and natural light, and besides all that also think about flexibility and energy-saving.

Supermarkets of the future
After Amazon presented their 'just walk out technology' in 2017, the future of shopping is closer than ever. They've developed an app you start when you walk into the store, which updates a virtual chart automatically using computer vision, deep learning algorithms and sensor fusions that make shopping without lines, checkouts and registres finally possible. Besides that, the future also brings the development of an experiential retail place where shopping is just one of the activities to offer.
