Color-coded Back Tags

Signaling stock-outs from a distance, these color-coded back tags are an almost festive way to call for sales associate attention. The colors did seem to bear a relationship to the depleted item. For example the far left “Zap” gift card had a back tag of the blue color of the “Zap” graphic. But I was remiss in not checking the back of the tags for additional product coding or restocking instructions. This gift card display was fixtured with a safety loop multi-hook guaranteeing permanent placement and spacing.
