The company is taking a whole new approach to its in-store marketing displays, complete with video animation created by Spectrio, a provider of audio and digital display solutions. The campaign is centered on providing Allied’s retail locations with graphics and video for its in-store promotional displays, most recently at its Hicksville, N.Y., Cleveland, Ohio, and East Rutherford, N.J., locations.

It incorporates Spectrio’s VideoCast signage technology, which is developed for the promotional video screens in Allied’s three locations. The content can be changed easily changed as needed, resulting in an efficient marketing tool that can be seen by all customers who enter the stores.
