Clothing store equipment comes in many forms, and Specialty Store Services offers many options to give your inventory prominence. When you have limited space, you can have shelving with casters to move shelves around based on available inventory. This is important for clearing space for traffic flow and highlighting the pieces you want customers to see first. Mannequins and hat racks make it easy for people to see your available inventory, while sizing cards on hangers offer an easier browsing experience, ensuring that your customers find what they need before browsing other selections. With these retail clothing supplies, you can create a shopping experience that feels intentional and easy to navigate.

FAQs on Retail Apparel Supplies
Do I need casters for my shelving units?
Casters are great for moving shelves around your space. If you are still trying to improve foot traffic or make way for a big sale, having casters can make it easy to make space where it’s needed while also making it easier for customers to find must-have items.
Do you offer countertop-based supplies?
We do! Several displays are also available in a small form for countertops, which makes it easy for people to browse and try on small products that would otherwise be difficult to see. You can also put these items near the checkout counter to entice customers to make one more purchase right before checkout.
Are wood or plastic hangers better for my inventory?
For a more premium feel to the space, we recommend wooden hangers because they add color and heft to each piece of clothing. If the budget is a bit tight at the moment, you can opt for plastic or even wire hangers and then upgrade to wooden hangers in the future.
Should I use straight or angled clothing racks?
The answer depends on your available inventory. Angled racks won’t carry as much clothing, but they easily tell people how much of a certain item you have available. If you want to showcase as many pieces as possible, a straight rack is your best bet. For a durable option, go with our steel-based racks.
Is a steamer necessary for my clothing inventory?
Steamers are great for removing wrinkles from clothing items, which can happen after people browse through carefully-folded piles of clothing. Use the steamer earlier in the day, before you open, so that your selection is ready for presentation throughout the day.
