In the retail industry, facing (also known as blocking, zoning or levelling) is the practice of pulling products forward to the front of the display or shelf on which they are placed, typically with the items' labels facing forward. This is done to keep a store appearing neat and organized, and can help create the illusion of a perfectly stocked store.

  • Le facing (anglicisme signifiant « façade »), la frontale, le frontal ou encore l’enfaçage est employé en merchandising pour indiquer combien d'articles (sous la même forme de conditionnement-présentation) sont visibles simultanément par un chaland passant devant un linéaire en libre-service. L'anglicisme correspond également à l'anglais « facing », qui désigne le bon rangement des articles pour donner une impression d'ordre dans le magasin. (fr)

  • In the retail industry, facing (also known as blocking, zoning or levelling) is the practice of pulling products forward to the front of the display or shelf on which they are placed, typically with the items' labels facing forward. This is done to keep a store appearing neat and organized, and can help create the illusion of a perfectly stocked store. The workers who perform this task normally have jobs doing other things in the store such as customer service, stocking shelves, daytime cleaning, bagging and carry outs (in grocery stores), etc. In some stores, however, facing is done only by the stockers. Facing is generally done near closing time when there are fewer customers and also while the store is completely closed. In busier stores it may be done constantly. In department stores it may be referred to as recovery, as in the store is recovering from the rush of customers that affect the model appearance the store wants to portray. Merchandise may be put in the wrong area, or customers may leave debris on the floor. Correcting these issues is a part of the recovery process. Facings also refer to the amount of shelf space a particular product is given. A lot of facing generally increases sales of a particular product, therefore manufacturers often pay more money to get more facings for their products. This can lead to situations in which the largest manufacturers end up with the most shelf space because they have the greatest ability to pay. (en)
