Smollan

Some brands dream about sales spikes. Others hire 75,000 people to nudge the universe in their favor.

Smollan isn't just a retail merchandising company - they're your quietly relentless growth engine. For 90 years, they've helped brands and retailers win right where it counts: the chaotic, blinking battleground known as the point of purchase. With operations in 61 markets and boots on the ground in every corner, their network doesn't just see your customers - it practically knows what aisle they lost their shopping list in.

Online sellers scaling from Shopify to Amazon crave more than dashboards and guesses. Smollan's blend of hands-on merchandising, live activation, and data-driven digital commerce lets you see what's working and tweak what isn't, fast. Their tech solutions don't just deliver insights - they hand you actual next steps, from better shelf placement to conversion-focused in-store campaigns.

The best part? Smollan's partnership approach scales to your ambition, whether you're a global powerhouse or a DTC brand with big retail dreams. Their playbook boosts customer engagement, improves operational precision, and drives sales at every touchpoint. Less theory, more proof - in the form of increased footfall, tighter data, and shoppers who leave with your products instead of someone else's.
