Crowd Control is often a business function most small retail start ups overlook. When do they realize they need crowd control stanchions? Pretty much at their Grand Opening when chaos at the checkout ensues.
A few well placed retractable stanchions can eliminate a lot of turmoil as they create an organized environment for your customers. Creating lanes, providing direction and eliminating confusion will provide your customers with a positive shopping experience and lead to return business. This also reflects well on you and your business as being professionally managed.
Large concert and sports venues know this ahead of time and plan ahead. Large crowds are their goal and crowd management and customer safety are their priorities.
