In retail, first impressions count, and not just on the shop floor. This Halloween, while your stores might be filled with pumpkins, cobwebs, and ghosts by design, the last place your customers want a scare is in the washroom.
At Dunhams, we’ve seen our fair share of ‘horror stories’ lurking behind retail doors. Broken cubicle doors, toilets constantly Out Of Order, peeling or swollen laminate where water has got in and broken sinks and wash troughs, these toilet facilities belong more in a haunted mansion than a modern shopping experience.
But in today’s competitive retail world, your washrooms are part of your brand. A tired, neglected washroom is more of a trick than a treat and sends the wrong message very quickly.
The Scary Reality of Neglected Retail Washrooms
If your washroom makes customers want to run, it could be haunting your business reputation, and your sales.
Did you know that:
- 1 in 3 customers have posted online reviews mentioning washroom conditions – both positive and negative
- 52% of customers may not return after a poor washroom experience
- 67% of UK shoppers would avoid a retail store with dirty or poorly maintained toilets
