Since the mid 1980’s Fortney & Weygandt, Inc. has been active in retail rollout programs. These programs consist of performing the same scope of work in multiple locations across many states. The schedule for each specific location may be as short as one day or as long as three weeks. We have found ourselves adding cigarette display units in 1,600 locations in 6 weeks as well as performing 300 intense remodels in six months. No two programs are alike and the performance parameters are always a challenge.

There is tremendous value in knowing your chosen vendor is working with you for the long term success of your company, not just the success of one project. Once that has been established, there are many benefits to an owner, most importantly an abundance of knowledge and resources to provide excellent services.

Earlier this year, Fortney & Weygandt, Inc. was awarded a program by Sprint/RadioShack. The program is a “Store within a store” concept that our Rollout Program Management department is managing.
