Measured layouts and implementation
A GroceryStores discussion describes unscaled Canva layouts and difficulty getting stores to follow them. A Visio discussion includes a practical explanation of scale drawings and precisely sized rectangles. Both are qualitative anecdotes, not market validation.
Free and paid alternatives
OPENCatman advertises a free version with essential features and paid advanced offerings. PlanoHero lists paid plans and a trial. Free alternatives exist, and general drawing tools can also support measured work.
Original example and limits
The corner-shop pantry example contains 20 fictional SKUs on three shelves. No branded product measurements, customer records or stock photos are used. This desk focuses on local geometry and an old-to-new implementation pack. It does not assess demand, profitability, load-bearing or regulatory compliance.
