So, what makes a great Mango Mania Display Contest entry? The board offers these eight handy tips:
- Build a display that’s attractive, eye-catching and easy for customers to shop.
- Visit mango.org/retail to learn more about mangoes, but do not order additional POS materials. Only one Mango Mania Display Contest Kit may be used per store.
