How to achieve space utilization in tobacco and alcohol cabinets
source：m.cppbug.com | Release time：2025年08月18日1、 Vertical spatial depth development
Tobacco and alcohol cabinets are mainly vertical structures, and the potential of vertical space is excavated through layered design to avoid waste on the ground and high altitude:
Clear layering function: Divided into levels based on "Golden Vision+Usage Scenarios", each layer carries different functions without redundant space.
The golden layer (1.2-1.6m): it is the core sales area where high gross profit and high frequency consumer products (such as hot cigarettes and mid end Baijiu) are placed, and the line of sight is directly reached to improve the purchase probability.
Middle level (0.8-1.2m/1.6-1.8m): place regular cigarettes and wines (such as circulating cigarettes and popular Baijiu) or new products for display, taking into account the convenience of access and richness of display.
Bottom floor (0.5-0.8m): It is designed as a closed locker or an open laminate to store spare stock (such as full container Baijiu and cigarette packs), avoid crowded display on the upper floor, and use low attention space for storage.
Top floor (1.8-2.2m): Place image items or corporate promotional materials (such as wine rack decorations, posters) to enhance the overall level and avoid wasting high-altitude space.
Adjustable laminates: the height of the laminates can be quickly adjusted through buckles and screws (such as the height of the white wine bottle is 25cm, and the height of the red wine bottle is 30cm), which can be adapted to different sizes of cigarette and wine packaging (such as boxed cigarettes, bottled wine, gift boxes), so as to avoid idle space caused by fixed floor height.
2、 Horizontal space refinement zoning: focusing on "scene based storage"
Based on the differences in attributes of tobacco and alcohol products (such as cigarettes vs. alcoholic beverages, room temperature vs. refrigerated, bulk vs. bulk sales), functional zones should be created horizontally to make the space "dedicated" and avoid confusion
Cigarette area: compact display+secure storage
Adopting a "drawer style cigarette cabinet" or "push-pull style cigarette box", each compartment corresponds to 1-2 types of cigarettes, arranged horizontally in a dense manner (with a single compartment width of 8-10cm, suitable for the size of the cigarette box). A 1m wide cigarette cabinet can accommodate 20-30 types, increasing the display capacity by 30% compared to ordinary shelves.
Some cigarette cabinets are integrated with "locks" or "concealed storage compartments" for storing high priced cigarettes, balancing display and anti-theft, without occupying additional independent space.
Alcoholic beverage area: classification adaptation+form compatibility
Baijiu/red wine partition: Baijiu is mostly placed vertically, and single bottle positions are divided by partition boards; Red wine needs to be tilted at a 45 ° angle (to keep the wine in contact with the cork), and the dedicated red wine layer board is designed with a tilted slot to prevent the bottle from rolling and save horizontal space.
Cold storage area embedding: A small cold storage cabinet (capacity 50-100L) is embedded in the middle or bottom of the tobacco and wine cabinet for storing beer and sparkling wine, without the need for a separate vertical refrigerator, saving floor space and integrating with the overall cabinet for a cleaner visual appearance.
Auxiliary area: utilization of corner space
Design "hooks" and "small shelves" on the side or corners of the cabinet to place accessories such as bottle openers, stoppers, cigarette lighters, etc., and use "ineffective corners" to convert them into practical space;
The small wine and tobacco cabinet next to the checkout counter can be designed as an "L" or "arc" shape, fitting the corner layout to avoid wasting space at right angles.
3、 Flexible and adaptable structure: compatible with different scene spaces
The structural design of the tobacco and liquor cabinet can adapt to the spatial limitations of different scenarios such as convenience stores, supermarkets, and specialty stores, achieving "local conditions":
Small scale scenarios (convenience stores/small shops): adopting a "narrow and deep cabinet" (depth of 30-40cm, width of 60-80cm), which can be placed on the wall or next to the cash register without occupying passage space; Part of it is a "detachable structure" that can be assembled according to the corner size of the store, adapting to irregular spaces.
Medium sized scenario (supermarket tobacco and alcohol area): using "modular cabinets", multiple sets of tobacco and alcohol cabinets are horizontally spliced into a "display wall", or vertically stacked (2-3 layers) to form a "three-dimensional tobacco and alcohol area", expanding the display volume within a fixed area; At the same time, reserve a 1.2-1.5m wide passage to accommodate both pick-up and passage.
4、 Hidden space utilization: balancing "storage and experience"
In addition to the explicit display space, the tobacco and alcohol cabinet also excavates additional space through implicit design to enhance practicality:
Cabinet back/side: Some tobacco and alcohol cabinets are designed with a "detachable back panel" on the back, with hidden storage compartments reserved inside for storing tobacco and alcohol packaging and promotional materials, without occupying external display space;
Under the countertop: The countertop of the counter style liquor cabinet is designed as a "drawer style storage" to store cash register equipment, bills, or commonly used tools (such as wine detectors), achieving a space combination of "countertop display+under table storage";
Lighting and visual extension: By embedding light strips inside the cabinet (such as under the shelves and in the wine area slot lights), the visual appeal of the product is enhanced, while weakening the boundary sense of the cabinet, making the small space appear more spacious, indirectly improving the "space perception utilization rate".
