Reinventing Dealer Fixtures

How Benchmarc’s Build to Order System Transformed Dealer Fixtures into Modular Brand Experiences

Client: Bandit industries

The Challenge

Bandit Industries, a leader in industrial wood chippers and stump grinders, faced a display problem that undercut their brand presence.

Their dealer fixtures:

• Hid the company’s graphics and logo behind bulky product samples

• Featured graphics that didn’t fit correctly, diminishing brand quality

• Served only as sample holders, without space for branded merchandise like shirts, hats, or brochures

Bandit needed more than just a functional fixture. They needed a flexible, brand-right solution that could tell their story at retail, hold diverse merchandise, and scale across their dealer network.

The Benchmarc Approach

Benchmarc Display stepped in with our Build to Order system, a process designed to move quickly from concept to delivery while giving brands and their dealer networks tools to succeed. The process is built around collaboration, visualization, and scalability.

Here’s how we transformed Bandit’s retail presence

Concept & Prototype Development

Benchmarc met with Bandit's team to get a better understanding of their current display, future goals, and dealer constraints. Taking a holistic approach enables a design that could expand and adapt to Bandit's future dealership needs.

Within 2 weeks, Benchmarc created multiple concept renderings, giving Bandit a clear vision of how their fixture could look with different products and merchandising options. A prototype was built for testing durability, usability, and branding options

• Designed a two-sided metal fixture with modular functionality

• Created a prototype to test product fit, visibility, and graphic alignment

The Fixture - Modular Design Features

The final solution was a solid metal, modular, two-sided fixture with flexible merchandising options. Key features included:

• Magnetic graphics: easy to update for promotions or branding changes.

• Custom universal product holders: built to fit Bandit’s wide range of samples.

• Apparel and hat displays: expanding the fixture’s role beyond samples to brand lifestyle.

• Brochure holders: supporting education and purchase decisions.

The Digital Experience

To streamline adoption across Bandit’s dealer network, Benchmarc designed a custom ordering website. Dealers could log in, configure their fixture with product, apparel, and graphic options, and place preorders seamlessly. The site even helped dealers visualize the display fully stocked.

• Configure displays with product samples, graphics, and merchandise

• Preview the final look before ordering

• Preorder their fixtures for streamlined rollout

Build to Order Execution

• Benchmarc managed the full lifecycle: manufacturing, storage, assembly, packing, and shipping

• Dealers received turnkey solutions ready to install in their showrooms

End-to-End Execution

The final Bandit Industries fixture was:

• Durable: Built from solid metal to withstand high-traffic dealer environments

• Modular: Easy to update with magnetic graphics and flexible accessories

• Brand-Right: Showcased Bandit’s bold graphics and logo with clarity

• Revenue-Ready: Expanded from product-only to a full merchandise and literature system

This wasn’t just a fixture, it became a dealer-friendly brand hub that could evolve with Bandit’s products and promotions.

The Results

• Elevated Brand Presence: Graphics and logos are now front and center, reinforcing Bandit’s reputation for quality

• Increased Dealer Buy-In: Preorder site simplified ordering and visualization, making adoption seamless

• Scalable Rollout: Dealers across the network could configure, order, and receive their displays quickly

• Long-Term Flexibility: Magnetic graphics and modular components allow for ongoing updates without costly rebuilds
