Dutch entertainment product retailer Free Record Shop operates about 250 stores in Western Europe, and is opening a new concept store in the Belgian city of Antwerp.
Branded as “Your source for entertainment”, the store is divided into different zones of color, each themed for games, movies, and music.
“We also installed seven scan listen/preview posts offering our complete inventory of music tracks, previews, music clips and trailers,” says Dominique Frantzen, commercial manager at Free Record Shop Belgium. “The nucleus of the new shop is ‘the source,’ a collection of bowl-shaped screens playing the newest music clips and movie trailers.”
Frantzen added: “At Free Record Shop, 36% of the turnover is music sales and we remain one of the reliable retailers for CD-singles.”
