RETAILER FEATURE
“They joked during this process, that there
was ‘about 200 years’ worth of experience in
the store,’ helping with this remodel, which
was of immeasurable help. We value that
kind of relationship and expertise,” Bill says.
Expanded Store,
Expanded Assortments
The expanded store opened in
November with high ceilings, natural light
and nearly double the retail space. This
meant it was time to increase purchasing,
and Blish-Mize was there to help.
“With the larger size of the store, we
counted on Blish-Mize to help us figure
out what pricing and what products
would be the best fit for us,” Bill says.
Since the remodel, Bill and Matt are
noticing an increase in customer interest
with the new, dynamic changes. “We’ve seen
a slight jump in the average transaction,
mostly because the larger store is more
accommodating to ‘shopping’ for customers
as opposed to stopping just for what they
need,” Bill says.
Both brothers say they are grateful for
the role Blish-Mize has had in making
their dreams of expansion a reality.
“They really help with anything we need,
and that was a deciding factor when we
needed to go with Blish-Mize,” Bill says.
“They have our best interests at heart and it
really shows.”
Since Blish-Mize helped store owners and brothers Matt and Bill Martinez with their remodel, Bill says
customers’ interest in Post Commissary has increased.
