The May-August Sun Care Reset Window

Sun care concentrates 70% of annual sales into 4 months (May-August) and requires a massive reset of drug store / mass retail endcap space every April-May. A typical CVS chain rolls 8,000+ sun care endcaps across its store fleet in a 4-6 week window, with end-of-summer teardown in September. Our sun care endcap combo is engineered for this cycle: flat-pack break-down (5-8 min store-ops assembly/teardown), mixed-format wells (tube + spray + stick + mineral powder from common chassis), SPF-tier signage (15/30/50/70+) with skin-type bands (sensitive/kids/athletic/face), and mass-retail unit economics (aggressive BOM optimization). 40+ drug store chains use this combo for summer sun care programs.
