Expand your retail space quickly with temporary and modular buildings
In the fast-paced world of retail, flexibility and speed are crucial. Whether you’re scaling up for seasonal demand, launching a new product line, or simply outgrowing your current space, finding a quick and cost-effective solution can make all the difference. That’s where temporary retail spaces and modular buildings come into play. At Mar-Key Group, we specialise in providing innovative building solutions that help businesses adapt and grow seamlessly.
Why Choose Temporary Retail Space?
Temporary retail spaces offer a flexible and efficient alternative to traditional brick-and-mortar construction. Here are some of the key benefits:
- Speed of Deployment: Modular and temporary structures can be set up in a fraction of the time it takes to build a permanent building. This allows you to respond quickly to market demands and opportunities.
- Cost-Effective: Building a permanent retail space involves significant capital investment. Temporary solutions are much more affordable, freeing up funds for other aspects of your business.
- Customisable: Temporary buildings can be tailored to your specific needs, whether you’re looking for a pop-up shop, a seasonal expansion, or a fully functional retail environment.
- Sustainability: Many modular and temporary structures are designed with eco-friendly materials and can be reused, relocated or recycled, reducing waste and environmental impact.
How Modular Buildings Work
Modular buildings care constructed using component parts which are made and part assembled then transported to site. This process minimises on-site disruption and accelerates the timeline for project completion. At Mar-Key Group, we provide high-quality modular solutions that are durable, aesthetically pleasing, and fully equipped to meet the demands of a modern retail operation.
Uses for Temporary Retail Space
Temporary retail spaces are incredibly versatile and can be used in a variety of scenarios:
- Seasonal Expansions: Increase your retail footprint during busy times of the year, such as holidays or sales seasons. At Mar-Key group, we supply multiple different structures each year for Tesco during the festive season to allow for additional storage during the busier times. Tesco case study.
- Pop-Up Shops: Test new markets or products with a temporary retail presence.
- Renovations: Keep your business running smoothly while your permanent location undergoes renovations. When a Budgens store in Holt burnt down, we were quickly on the scene to provide them with a temporary structure two weeks later to be up for 18 months whilst the main store was being rebuilt. This meant that business could continue with little disruption due to the quick turn around of a temporary retail facility.
- Emergencies: If a fire, flooding or pandemic come out of nowhere, your business can keep running. Back in 2020 during the pandemic, we installed a temporary Tesco store at the ExCel and NEC Nightingale Hospitals to ensure that staff and visitors had access to groceries and essential items whilst on site.
- Click and collect facilities: If your retail space is thinking of expanding into click and collect but you don’t have the facilities to accommodate this, then look no further than a modular building to allow your business to grow.
Temporary Retail Space is Not a One-Size-Fits-All
At Mar-Key Group, we understand that every retail business is unique. That’s why we offer tailored solutions to meet your specific requirements. Our in-house CAD team will work closely with you to design exactly what you need. We will then deliver, and install a temporary retail space that aligns with your brand and business goals. All of our structures can be customised with branded PVC roofs and walls in a full range of colours so your temporary structure can fit in seamlessly with your brand and other buildings.
We also offer bespoke options such as single skin steel cladding, thermo insulated roofs, roller shutter doors, automatic/sliding doors and ramp access. Although these solutions have temporary in their name, they are not temporary in their nature and can be in situ for multiple years, meeting your exact requirements. From climate control to lighting and flooring, we take care of every detail so you can focus on what you do best—serving your customers.
