\t\t\t\t\"\"<\/a>\nThe Stapleton King Soopers continues to be at the forefront of improving the grocery shopping experience. First, they have a wildly successful gas station, and most recently they have added the whole foods express. They have now added the third biggest change to grocery shopping: the one-way aisle. In order to squeeze in the Whole Foods Express and add in new inventory, King Soopers has had to go to smaller aisles. These small aisles have not been popular with customers. Shoppers have had trouble getting through two carts at one time causing anxiety, claustrophobia, inadvertent groping, and even fights.\nKing Soopers put their brainstorming team together to solve this issue, and they believe they have. Manager Gary Stevens explains. \u201cPeople in Denver are very used to one-way streets. They help keep traffic moving, and overall are a necessity in an urban environment. Well, we consider ourselves an urban grocery store. So, we are creating one-way aisles in our \u2018skinny\u2019 aisles to help customers.”\nSigns will be posted at each end of the aisle and wrong way signs will also be included along with an arrow pointing the correct direction of traffic. Several different policing options have been discussed in regards to rule breakers. \u201cWe may simply take their King Soopers card, or delay their shopping by making them watch a 20 minute video explaining how one-ways work,\u201d says Stevens. \u201cWe are open to other suggestions, however.\u201d Two other things that Soopers has improved is that they have made aisles much more diverse. \u201cNow, if you are looking for charcoal, ice cream, and a greeting card, they are all in the same place.\u201d Aisle signage is now not so \u201cin your face\u201d and you can go halfway down the aisle before being able to read the sign.\nOne-ways will be implemented immediately, and shoppers are asked to be cooperative during this change. \u201cWe know in the end this is something that is going to improve the King Soopers shopping experience,\u201d says Stevens. Just one more way King Soopers is here for you. ]]>\t\t<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
