Placement is a powerful retail marketing techniquePlacement can prompt purchase (Kerr, 2012). Placement at children’s eye level can prompt children’s requests for particular (and usually unhealthy) foods and beverages (Horsley, 2014).

After making a series of decisions, such as choosing among the 30,000 to 50,000 items in a supermarket (Sorensen, 2009), people are more likely to make choices against their best interests (Bruyneel, 2006; Baumeister, 2002). Willpower is like a muscle that fatigues with use (Cohen, 2012a).

The placement of food and drinks in the checkout aisles of retail stores is a powerful form of marketing that contributes to food environments that promote unhealthy eating and diet-related disease. Foisting candy, chips, soda, and other sugary drinks upon customers at the end of a shopping trip exploits human psychology and basic biology, making shoppers vulnerable to consuming additional calories, added sugars, saturated fat, and other dietary constituents that put their health at risk.

The ubiquity of food and predominance of unhealthy foods in our surroundings (the food environment) work against people’s efforts to eat well, straining willpower to the breaking point. The contemporary food environment is saturated with junk foods. Humans evolved to crave foods high in salt, sugars, and calories, which were scarce during most of human history, and people continue to crave the same kinds of foods—only now their abundance threatens our health and wellbeing (Cohen, 2014).

Second, the composition of the product can be a form of marketing. For example, by grouping crackers, meat, cheese, candy, and a drink together, Kraft makes Lunchables desirable to parents as a convenient all-in-one meal solution. Lunchables also appeal to children as something they can assemble themselves, which is reinforced by Kraft’s ads, which emphasize independence and empowerment by telling kids, “All day, you gotta do what they say. But lunchtime is all yours” (Moss, 2013a). As a result, Lunchables have become a whole supermarket category, complete with knockoffs (Strom, 2013). Fruit snacks are another example. By shaping sugar, wax or gelatin, artificial colorings and flavorings, and sometimes a bit of fruit juice or fruit puree into the form of a cartoon character, companies created a new category of food that they market to busy parents as a healthy snack. Thus, candy is marketed as a fruit substitute and has become a regular addition to many lunchboxes.

According to a comprehensive review by the National Academies’ Institute of Medicine, television food advertising affects children’s food choices, food purchase requests, diets, and health (IOM, 2006). The American Psychological Association concluded that until the age of about 8 years old children are unable to understand the persuasive intent of advertisements, and more recent research reveals that some children as old as 11 or 12 may not understand advertisements’ persuasive intent (Kunkel, 2004; Carter, 2011). Nonetheless, in 2009, 86 percent of televised food and beverage advertisements seen by children ages 2 to 11 were for products high in saturated fat, sugar, or sodium (Powell, 2011). Cereal manufacturers, for example, advertise their healthiest products to adults and their least healthy products to children (Harris, 2012). In addition, many food companies engage in target marketing based on ethnicity or race, resulting in some children and teens getting a double dose of marketing: they are exposed to general marketing and to additional marketing targeted at them based on their race or ethnicity (BMSG, 2010).

A handful of big companies dominate the American snack and beverage markets. PepsiCo (Gatorade, Propel, Mountain Dew, Doritos, Tostitos, Lay’s, Ruffles, Rold Gold, SunChips) has 75 percent of the market in sports drink sales, 31 percent of the market for full-calorie carbonated soft drinks, 58 percent of the potato chip market, and 21 percent of the pretzel market (FWW, 2013). Coca-Cola (Powerade, Sprite) has 24 percent of the sports drink market and 34 percent of the full-calorie carbonated soft drink market. Mondelēz (Oreos, Newtons, Teddy Grahams, Chips Ahoy) and Kellogg (Keebler, Chips Deluxe, Fudge Shoppe, Sandies) dominate cookies, together making up more than 50 percent of the market. Hershey (Reese"s, KitKat, York, Almond Joy, Jolly Rancher, Twizzlers) has the biggest share of both the chocolate and non-chocolate candy market, with Mars (M&Ms, Snickers, Twix, Skittles, Starburst) a close second.

Purchases from checkout typically do not displace purchases from elsewhere in the store. Industry research across six supermarket chains revealed that when stores sell an item at checkout, people spend more than they otherwise would (Masterfoods, 2010b). A study of Australian consumers found that shoppers who buy candy and soda at the checkout are often the same people who ignore those items in the main aisles (Miranda, 2008). Food companies know that too. In 2013, a trade publication quoted Timothy LeBel, vice president for Mars Chocolate North America, as saying, “Nearly two-thirds of consumers do not visit the candy aisle, so retailers should put candy on display in high-traffic locations and include power brands and consumer-relevant packs.” Mars positioned itself as part of the “solution” by helping “retailers capture impulse purchases through secondary displays,” including at checkout (Goldschmidt, 2013).

In Norway, researchers swapped out candy and gum at checkout in two stores with dried fruit and dried fish. During the first phase of the experiment, the researchers did not announce the change or promote the new foods in any way other than putting them by the registers. During the next phase of the study, they added signs promoting the health benefits of the change. Sales of the new foods increased during both phases of the intervention, and sales of candy, which had been relocated away from checkout, gradually decreased. Interestingly, the addition of signs at checkout did not boost sales of the healthier items more than placement in the checkout aisle alone (Sigurdsson, 2014). The study suggests that placement at checkout is a more powerful marketing tool than promotion is.

The placement of foods is such a powerful tool to influence purchase decisions that manufacturers pay retailers handsomely to put their products in checkout aisles and on end caps. The payments are called “slotting fees,” “promotional fees,” “staying fee,” “pay to stay,” “free fill,” “display fees,” or “trade promotions.” Although such payments originated for placement in supermarkets, they are now common in many retail stores (Klein, 2007).

Even more powerful than exposure to an image of an item is the physical and temporal proximity of a product. Simply being close to a product can activate an urge to consume it, and the fact that it is immediately available to be consumed can intensify this urge (Dholakia, 2000). In one experiment, for example, both popcorn and apples were placed in bowls in the same room as research participants, who were told they were welcome to eat. People ate more of the food that was near to them, regardless of which they preferred, leading the researchers to conclude that “proximity, not preferences, influenced food intake” (Privitera, 2014).

Impulse buying and consumption are motivated by urges that are sudden, often powerful, and persistent (Dholakia, 2000). Urges to eat are more frequent than urges to sleep, drink, and have sex combined (Hofmann, 2012). These urges are often unrelated to people’s goals and are sometimes directly at odds with what they say they want (Dholakia, 2000). Impulse buying, by definition, lacks any “thoughtful consideration of why and for what reason a person should have the product” (Vohs, 2007). And, even if “we know the ‘right’ answer [that] doesn’t mean we can bring ourselves to choose it” (Iyengar, 2011).

Because a default is what you get when you do not actively choose, it holds a “privileged status among all possible choices” (Halpern, 2007). Defaults are widely accepted as affecting human behavior. Studies have looked at the role that defaults play in decision-making across an array of subjects, including selecting an investment vehicle (Agnew, 2005), choosing generic drugs (Abadie, 2006), opting for organ donation (King, 2002), and ordering from a menu (Wisdom, 2005). The results show that people are more likely to opt for the particular option when it is set as the default than they would otherwise.

The power of checkout already boosts sales of healthy foods and beverages where they are offered. Water, for example, is typically stocked in half of supermarket checkout aisles and takes up less than 2 percent of the space across all checkout aisles (Masterfoods, 2010b). However, 40 percent of shoppers reported that they had purchased bottled water from checkout in the past six months. Similarly, although supermarkets stock nuts or seeds in only 6 percent of checkout aisles, 18 percent of shoppers had purchased those foods from checkout in the past six months (Masterfoods, 2010b).

Additionally, exposure to particular foods in checkout may increase affection for them. This is due to the “mere exposure effect,” by which an increase in the familiarity of a neutral or positive object or idea results in people liking it more. “The mere exposure effect explains many facets of our life, such as why it’s so hard to find someone who can prepare our childhood favorites like Mom did, and it also holds when we see the latest fashion trends prominently featured in stores, catalogs, and finally on people we know” (Iyengar, 2011).

Carrie Brainard is the health official in charge of implementing the program in her region. She says that in the beginning, stores anticipated challenges that did not end up being obstacles. For example, when Change the Future WV proposed placing baskets of fresh fruit in the checkout aisle, store managers feared they could not lawfully do so. Getting the sign-off of the local health department—which occasionally requires modifications such as tongs to pick up fruit—has been key to the program’s feasibility and success.

Displaying products at checkout is a powerful form of marketing that prompts people to buy foods and beverages that they had not planned to buy. Shoppers can avoid a soda or candy aisle, but they cannot avoid checkout.

The Council of Better Business Bureau’s Children’s Food and Beverage Advertising Initiative (CFBAI) should add healthy checkout to its self-regulation program. Children often shop with their parents at a wide range of stores, and placement of products at checkout is a powerful marketing technique. Just as CFBAI applies nutrition standards for products advertised on children’s television, so too should its members comply with nutrition standards for foods marketed at checkout.

Provide discounts on license fees for retailers that meet or exceed nutrition standards or opt only to sell non-food items at checkout.Other policies:The Federal Trade Commission and state Attorneys General should use their subpoena power to assess the use of placement fees to promote particular foods and beverages in supermarkets and other retail stores, both at checkout and in other parts of the store. Aggregating and analyzing this data, those offices should report to the public how placement fees promote particular foods over others, the types and costs of the fees, the types of foods promoted, and other factors that affect retail food choices.
