Expanded in 2024! This mock retail store focuses on ideas and technology specific to the pool retail business:

  • Space Design,
  • Merchandising
  • and balancing in store vs online retail experiences. 

New this year will be 2 full days of programming and a networking event for retail store owners on “The Veranda”, a hang out space outside the “store”.

L.I.F.F.E

At the heart of our storefront is Lifestyle, Innovation, Fitness, Family, and Environment (L.I.F.F.E). We feel these values encapsulate the Pool & Spa industry, and by ensuring the practices we highlight in Retail Innovation Zone align with L.I.F.F.E, we know they will be successful when you take them back to your stores.
