The Mango Mania Display Contest does not only challenge retailers and grocery stores in upping their point-of-sale display game, but it also offers the chance for these companies to win cash prizes.
Curated by the National Mango Board (NMB), the initiative is designed to draw attention and boost the sales of "Mango! The Super Fun, Superfruit." Materials for the POS displays are available for order through mango.org/POS. Once the merchandising teams have created their entry, the Mango Mania displays need to be kept in place for at least one week in the month of June.
There are two store categories for this initiative – those with one to six cash registers and the rest with seven or more cash registers. The prizes of the Mango Mania Display Contest are as follows: $500 USD for first place, $250 USD for second and $100 USD for third for each category.
