Gourmet and Speciality Shops - Hardcover

What does a gourmet/specialty food shop look like? Does it look like a Tuscan salumeria or an elegant Parisian fashion boutique? It looks like both and all the shades and variations between the two. With shoppers becoming more sophisticated and more aware, they are demanding the best; and what was once exotic or unique is now expected. Because of this, food retailers are upscaling their looks and enhancing their merchandise presentation and creating food boutiques filled with imported delicacies and gourmet-prepared take-out foods.
Gourmet Store Design is literally crammed with over 300 colorful images and hundreds of ideas waiting to be culled from the 70 case histories collected in this book. They include gourmet shops, specialty food stores, markets and supermarkets, organic and health food stores, coffee and tea retailers, wine and liquor outlets, and many more.
