Cindy Jones Associates specializes in innovative hospital gift shop designs that work! By using the most up-to-date marketing and design strategies, unique and successful retail environments are provided. Hospital gift shops are unique and require special design experience. The needs of customers often have to be met in a very limited amount of space. A mini-department store approach is required. Cindy Jones Associates recognizes those special needs and incorporates them into design plans that work for hospital gift shops.

The needs of the people — volunteers, paid staff and customers — using the space are priorities. Provide space planning. Determine sales and related support-area space configurations. Develop preliminary floor plans indicating store fixturing specifications, their locations and operational considerations.
