Every Ryman Stationery store I visit in the UK is inspiring. They offer a good range of stationery at competitive prices. Brands are blocked together. The layout is consistent across the network. I especially like how they manage floorspace in small format stores.
One store I visited yesterday was no more than 70 square metres yet they offered an excellent range laid out in a shopper friendly way with enticing impulse purchase opportunities along the way.
Any newsagent visiting to the UK should include visits to Ryman outlets on their agenda. There is much to learn. They make shopping for stationery desirable.
