The topic of the final paper is space management. Space management is a part of category management. Category management implies the process of classifying products into various merchandise categories. For each of the categories it is important to understand the decisive process of a customer, that is, whether the most important criterion for buying is the price or maybe the taste, the smell or the brand. Store space management entails planning a store layout, stacking the shelves with merchandise, as well as creating a comfortable and pleasurable atmosphere. The stores tend to arrange and decorate space to attract customers, give them a sense of trust in the product quality, encourage them to spend time in the store and to buy impulsively. More and more attention is given to the elements that create pleasant atmosphere, such as lighting, music, smell and decorations, which affect the overall sales of a store. Salespeople pay close attention to shelf space management. The real way of displaying and placing goods is the one that satisfies the needs and habits of the consumer, while bringing the customers’ attention to the product, causing positive emotions in customers, being available and at a hand’s reach and prompting the buyers to take the products with them. The products on the shelves must belabelled and illuminated so the customers notice them. Nicely decorated and well-organized shelves attract the attention of the customers and affect the impulsive purchase.
