Week 1 - Site Visit

 
Last week was the first week of the project, and thinking that we should familiarise ourselves a bit more with The Body Shop me, Sarah and Scott decided to have a site visit to our local shop. The nearest shop to the college is in Beverley. It is a very small shop and a lot of the floor space is taken up by floor stands and floor displays, it would be extremely hard to push a buggy around! We found that the shop itself isn't very well organised with products in a variety of different areas. I found that the skin care side of the range was set out neatly and all in one place, as well as with the makeup! however the ranges that all contain body butters, shower gels, bath creams and the like seemed to be scattered through the shop aimlessly.
 
We tried to talk to the manager who seemed flustered (understandably) as on of her tills was out of action! She asked us to go back the day after if we wanted to ask her questions. We gave Scott this task as both me and Sarah where at work the next day and Scott was not. This was also a task for Scott to complete before he went away for the week.
