Mars Modular displays

The challenge

Design, develop, deliver and manage a permanent display system for Wrigley that retailers will use while also streamlining Mars-Wrigley operations. 

Success factors

A modular system with injection mouldings and steel frame elements suitable to build out a wide variety of display formats that:

• Improves speed to market.

• Makes set-up and assembly easy, with fewer parts and less hardware.

• Functionality with flexibility.

• Cost-effective global distribution still accommodating customisation and localisation for different markets.

• Future-proofed to support technology additions.

The results

• 8 essential components tooled up and fully inter-changeable.
• Over 40 different displays variants produced to date for Wrigley markets across Europe.
• Production lead times improved 65% over previous processes.
• Assembly time 60% less than previous versions.
• Displays are easy to disassembly and re-purpose parts for other displays—all with one custom tool.
