10 kilometres of POS modules installed to equip specialist retailers for the future
Dortmund, 8 September 2026 – Modern retail spaces now do far more than simply display products. They have a major influence not only on how easily customers find their way around but also on their shopping experience and, ultimately, whether they make a purchase. With a total of 10 kilometres of POS modules installed, NORDWEST is making a clear statement about the future of specialist stores and highlighting the strategic importance of professional shop and retail space design that combines functionality, commercial viability and emotional appeal.
The 10 kilometres of point-of-sale modules installed to date are, above all, a testament to the extensive expertise of NORDWEST’s POS and shopfitting team. For more than 18 years, the team has supported specialist trade partners in modernising, refurbishing and extending their retail spaces and in creating new ones. Its services range from counter design and POS concepts for the exclusive TECWERK brand to comprehensive planning of shelving and lighting systems.
With around 750 successfully completed projects, the team has extensive experience in developing modern, cost-effective retail environments.
Specialist trade partners particularly value the personal on-site advice and comprehensive project delivery from a single source – from planning, module catalogues, shelving systems, LED lighting, display fixtures and labelling services through to on-site installation.
Another advantage is that this service can cover all assortments, with individual concepts always tailored precisely to the specific requirements. The result is retail space that not only looks appealing, but also helps customers find their way around, streamlines processes and strengthens specialist retailers’ competitiveness over the long term.
As customer expectations rise and products become easier to compare, professional retail space design is becoming increasingly important. Thoughtful space planning makes it easier for customers to find their way around, raises the profile of brands and product assortments and creates an engaging shopping experience in specialist stores.
Unlocking sales potential with a new POS design for the Johannes Lefeld specialist store
A recent example of this approach is the comprehensive redesign of the Johannes Lefeld GmbH & Co. KG specialist store in Rietberg, Westphalia. Additional POS modules extending over more than 150 metres were installed there, creating a consistent product display throughout. Individual elements such as counter solutions, platform areas and brand displays had already been successfully implemented. As part of the full modernisation, NORDWEST then supplied and installed all the shelving, including integrated LED lighting, as a complete package. The result is a modern, clearly structured retail space that showcases products to best effect while enhancing the in-store experience for customers.
NORDWEST provides comprehensive support for its partners – from the initial idea, detailed 3D planning and carefully considered concept development through to professional on-site implementation – to ensure efficient use of space while creating the setting for an attractive shopping experience.
“The redesign of our sales space is an important investment in the future for us. From the initial idea right through to successful implementation, NORDWEST was a reliable partner at our side. Together, we have developed a concept that showcases our assortments to best effect and is consistently tailored to our customers’ needs”, says André Wieneke, Managing Director of Johannes Lefeld GmbH & Co. KG. He particularly
