UK Seasonal Merchandising & Q4 Activation Support
Everything for the Q4 you planned - and the one you didn't.
You know the pressure of peak weeks. You’ve put months into planning, but in the chaos of the season, execution can go wrong fast:
- Promotions not set up on day one
- Seasonal stock stuck in stockrooms until it’s too late (and you have to discount)
- Shelves empty during peak trading hours
- New SKUs squeezed out of space
- Free gifts and offers hidden from shoppers
CPM’s 'Flex' team is here to make sure none of that happens.
Our fully employed, nationwide team keeps your campaign on track – from day-one compliance through to last-minute pushes. We spot the gaps, fix the details, and give your products the best chance to sell through.
With 'Flex' on your side, you’re not just avoiding problems – you’re delivering a campaign that runs smoothly, sells strongly, and makes you stand out. This season, be the NAM who has all the tools and support to address whatever Q4 throws at you.

What our nationwide syndicated merchandising and compliance team delivers...
Promotional compliance checks. Ensuring promotions are executed on Day 1, with photographic evidence and real-time dashboards, for leverage with retailers if you haven't got what you paid for.
Rapid field team deployment. Merchandisers available nationwide, with the flexibility to scale teams up during peak trading weeks – or urgently address a product recall.
POS & display installs. FSDUs, shippers, gondola ends, seasonal bays (Halloween, Diwali, Christmas, Black Friday, Easter).
Stock fix and availability. Monitoring on-shelf availability and fixing gaps during high-demand trading periods
Depot and wholesale support. Engaging depots ahead of seasonal peaks to influence stock flow into convenience and symbol stores.
Our 'Flex' teams are on the ground now in grocery stores nationwide, ready to step in exactly where and when you need them. We make sure your seasonal campaigns land as planned, so you can focus on the bigger picture.
