The VVN store shelving system is retail shelving equipment for organising product displays in retail stores, available in two lines: VSP (single-sided, double-sided and corner configurations – internal and external corner) and MRS, a newer line with an extended range of sizes and colours. Both systems are GS-certified by the German institute TÜV Rheinland and are supplied to Latvia, Lithuania, Estonia, Finland, Sweden, Norway and Denmark.

A store shelving system is modular retail equipment designed for storing and presenting products in the sales area of a grocery, hardware, specialist or chain-format retail store. VVN offers two lines of such systems, VSP and MRS, which differ in construction, size range and development period but serve the same purpose: to organise the sales floor so that products are conveniently positioned, easy for customers to read, and make efficient use of the room’s floor area.
The shelving is assembled from standardised components – uprights, shelves and fixing elements – allowing the configuration to be changed for different retail formats without replacing the entire structure. The system can be positioned along a wall (single-sided version), in the centre of the sales floor as an island (double-sided version), or at the junction of two walls (corner version). Thanks to GS certification from TÜV Rheinland, the equipment complies with European safety standards, which is particularly important for sales areas with high footfall.
The VVN store shelving system gives retail businesses several practical benefits that directly affect revenue per square metre and staff convenience.
These qualities make the system equally valuable for a small specialist store and for a chain with several retail locations.
VVN offers two lines of shop shelving, VSP and MRS, and the choice between them depends on the requirements of a specific sales floor.
VSP is a proven system with three configuration types: single-sided (for wall placement), double-sided (for island placement in the centre of the floor), and corner – in internal and external versions (for finishing wall junctions and working around columns). The approximate price excluding VAT for a single-sided VSP system starts from EUR 121.93 for a 200×100 cm, 4-shelf configuration and reaches EUR 177.11 for a 200×133 cm, 6-shelf configuration. A double-sided VSP system costs from EUR 198.98 to EUR 306.00 depending on size. Prices for non-standard configurations are provided on request.
MRS is a newer line that combines the best design solutions from previous models and offers an extended choice of sizes and colours. The maximum shelf load for MRS ranges from 80 to 280 kg depending on shelf length and depth, and rises to 515 kg when a support-leg shelf is used, making MRS the preferred choice where higher load capacity is required.
If a proven construction with a flexible choice of layout (wall-mounted, island or corner) at a moderate budget is your priority, choose VSP. If your store needs a wider choice of sizes and colours to suit a specific interior, or higher shelf load capacity, choose MRS.

Both VVN shelving lines – VSP and MRS – hold GS safety certification issued by the German institute TÜV Rheinland. The GS certificate (German: Geprüfte Sicherheit, “tested safety”) confirms that the construction has undergone independent testing for compliance with strict European and German quality and safety standards. For a store owner, this means the equipment has been tested by a third party rather than simply declared safe by the manufacturer, reducing risk when operating in a sales area with high customer footfall.
In terms of technical specifications, the maximum shelf load for the MRS line ranges from 80 to 280 kg, with the exact figure depending on shelf length and depth. When a shelf with an additional support leg is used, the permissible load increases to 515 kg, allowing heavier and bulkier products – such as building materials or large household goods – to be placed on the shelving.
The construction of both systems is resistant to mechanical damage, corrosion and other environmental factors, which is important both for premises with heavy daily traffic and for warehouse areas with harsher operating conditions.
The VSP line is available in three configuration types, selected according to the layout of the sales floor.
The single-sided configuration is installed along a wall and suits narrow sales floors or perimeter displays, where free space needs to be preserved in the centre of the room. The double-sided configuration is designed for island placement in the centre of the floor – both sides of the shelving unit are used for display, increasing retail space per square metre of the room. The corner configuration – in internal and external versions – solves the problem of finishing wall junctions and recesses and working around columns, where a straight section does not fit the geometry of the room.
The choice of configuration is determined by the shape and area of the sales floor: small specialist stores more often use single-sided and corner solutions, while supermarkets and larger stores use a combination of double-sided island rows with single-sided perimeter displays along the walls.
The VVN store shelving system suits a wide range of retail formats – from small specialist stores to chain retail outlets across several countries in the Baltics and Scandinavia.
The equipment is already in use in completed projects across different retail profiles. For example, the “TOP” store chain fitted out its outlets in Sigulda and Ādaži (Latvia) with VVN shelving, an example of the system being used in a convenience-store format. A similar solution has been implemented for specialist retail: a children’s toy store in Denmark and a sweet shop in Tallinn (Estonia) use the same principles of modular display for products with small dimensions and high turnover. The system can also be seen in the “Salome Tartu” trading hall (Estonia) and at the “Karupoeg Puhh” Lake Center in Tallinn.
This variety of locations – from neighbourhood grocery stores to specialist and leisure retail – confirms that the construction handles everyday-demand products just as well as niche assortments requiring a more expressive presentation.
The store shelving system is installed using standardised components – uprights, shelves and fixing elements – allowing the structure to be assembled and, if necessary, reconfigured without the need for heavy machinery. When planning installation, it is advisable to determine the configuration in advance (single-sided, double-sided or corner) and the positions of the shelving rows, taking into account aisles and the fire-safety requirements of the sales floor.
During operation, the construction requires no special maintenance thanks to its resistance to mechanical damage and corrosion – regular visual inspection of fixings and shelves is sufficient, especially in areas with heavy loads or high customer traffic. When the assortment changes, shelves and sections can be reconfigured independently, without dismantling the entire system.
