SMALL DISPLAY? IT’S OK! Seriously, the size of your display doesn’t matter. Not all stores have room for a big display. Based on your creativity, you can still win! Smaller displays have the same chance of winning as larger displays.

CATEGORY MANAGERS WIN TOO Our Category Manager Match Program makes it easy for category managers to win, too! If your store is a First- through Fifth-place winner, you win the equivalent in prizes; plus, you are entered into the random drawing for the trip to Maui. So encourage your stores to participate and send in their entries. It’s a win-win situation!
