The making of Progressive Retail Services
Progressive Retail Services was founded by Garry Robinson, who began his journey as a dedicated merchandiser at Ingles. Recognizing his deep commitment and expertise, Garry was invited to extend his passion by starting his own business, thus giving birth to Progressive Retail Services. From these humble beginnings, the company has grown significantly, driven by a steadfast dedication to the grocery industry and a clear vision to enhance retail and manufacturing processes. Today, Progressive Retail Services stands as a testament to enduring hard work and a deep understanding of our clients’ needs.

Redefining grocery merchandising
At Progressive Retail Services, our approach to grocery merchandising, especially in planogram resets, is defined not just by the tasks we perform, but by the manner in which we perform them. Unlike the typical focus solely on efficiency and execution, we emphasize the attitude and personal engagement of our team. This begins with caring deeply about the ultimate beneficiaries of our work—the customers' customers.
Our team is trained to not only rearrange shelves according to precise specifications but to do so with an awareness of the shopper's experience. If a store customer needs help, our merchandisers are prepared to assist, saying, 'I don’t work for this store, but let me help you find that item.' This proactive approach ensures that we not only meet the expected standards of our client stores but also positively impact the shopping experience, which in turn reflects well on the store's brand.
This customer-centric focus sets us apart from our competitors, who often overlook the human aspect of merchandising. At Progressive Retail Services, we believe that our responsibility extends beyond mere placement and includes contributing to a welcoming and efficient shopping environment. By embracing this philosophy, we deliver superior value to both our clients and their customers.
