Pop-Up Shops with PODS Shipping Containers
A Flexible Solution for Retailers
Take your merchandise and sell it where your customers gather with a mobile pop-up shop in a PODS storage container. Pop-up retail stores are perfect for e-commerce retailers interested in getting their products physically in front of people for a low overhead cost, and brick-and-mortar retailers seeking to connect with new customers in other areas.
Space for Short-Term Vendors
A pop-up container rental provides the freedom to create a unique experience on a temporary basis, such as at a live event or a holiday market. Brands can generate buzz for a product launch, reach seasonal shoppers, or gauge the responsiveness of an untapped audience by establishing a pop-up shop or a pop-up restaurant at a non-permanent location.
Protect Your Valuable Inventory On-Site
You can have peace of mind that your merchandise will be secure when left overnight by using a PODS storage container as a retail pop-up store.
Designed With Weather In Mind
Rain or shine, your products will stay protected when your pop-up shop is in a PODS container. Our storage containers are steel-framed and designed to keep merchandise protected from elements both inside and out.
How to Start a Pop-Up Shop with PODS
Find a Location
Research customer communities, popular shopping holidays, and upcoming events related to your brand to lead the placement of where you establish pop-up shops.
Determine Container Size
Consider the quantity of merchandise you project selling from your pop-up storage container to gauge the shipping container size or the amount of containers you must rent to meet your goals.
Logistics Planning
Review which dates you will need to have your shipping container delivered and removed from your pop-up shop site, and if it will need to be transported between any locations.
Increase Awareness
Create a successful pop-up shop by spreading the word of your new location in advance, and by providing customer incentives for visitors to share their experience on social media.
