SPAR TO THE RESCUE ( image)

TARRYTOWN, N.Y., June 23, 2003 - Hearts jump when a car crashes into a chain store. A major national retailer faced this trauma when their relatively new freestanding store in the midwest was shaken this spring. A driver smashed through the store damaging gondolas and wall fixtures in the way.

While no one was critically injured, a quadrant of the store was left unusable for business. Management sectioned the area off, continuing operations elsewhere.

The national chain quickly moved to restore the damaged section. Their national staff called contractors the same day to rebuild the wall, ceiling, lighting and flooring, and cart-away damaged fixtures. Local employees boxed inventory and moved it to the back room.

The national chain also called SPAR Group, America's leading retail merchandising company, to install new fixtures and restore the location to full operation. SPAR has served them in the past by remodeling existing stores and setting-up new locations including this particular one last fall.

The week after the crash, SPAR worked closely with chain management. They installed new fixtures together, followed plan-o-grams, stocked the shelves and applied tags and signage. In only four days, virtually all was ready for customers and sales. The chain's staff remained several days to fine-tune the operation and complete back-fill of product.

This national retailer was extremely pleased with the SPAR crew and how quickly and professionally they restored the area to full operations, commenting on what an outstanding job they did.
