Wood Display Carts Help You Sell Merchandise

Wood display carts are an appealing away to display your merchandise. They evoke the charm and serenity of days gone by-wagon trains, flower carts filled with daisies, docks down by the river, crates from the four corners of the world filled with exotic goods. Consider all the ways you might use wood display carts to sell your merchandise.



Flower carts were originally for selling flowers, of course, but there are many other things you can do with them. Take your flower cart to a football game and sell coffee, hot chocolate, and homemade cinnamon roles. Or take it to a baseball game and sell hot dogs, bottled water, and ice cold lemonade. Consider contracting with a local business to sell their products at fairs and carnivals. Use it as a registration table for PTA events, or put some books and candy in it and wheel it around a nursing home or hospital.
A wooden wagon display cart conjures up pictures of fall hayrides and trips through freshly mown fields. Park your rustic wood display cart outside your establishment and create an autumn display, complete with hay bales and fresh fall produce. Use it to sell watermelons and cantaloupe in the summer, pumpkins and apples in the fall. Take it to a festival and use it to sell your merchandise. Make it into an old-fashioned chuck wagon and sell beans and cornbread at a fall festival.
Imagine a bustling dockside on the Mississippi River, men hoisting crates, taking them from the steamboats and loading them into carts on the dock. Those are the sorts of images evoked by an old-fashioned wood crate display cart. Crate display carts are deep and rectangular, and have three compartments. They're adjustable, so they can lie flat, be set vertically, or set diagonally to better display the wares inside. Consider using the association with 1880s America to your advantage by displaying bolts of cloth, handmade quilts, maybe shirts and pants. Cast iron skillets and kitchen wares would also look great, sold from your wood display cart. Video stores and book stores might use a wood cart on the sidewalk outside their establishment to display heavily discounted sales items.

Wood display carts are a great way to display merchandise and get people talking. Evoke simpler times and sell big. Use them indoors or outside, and add a touch of the frontier to your sales displays.
