Spanish term

islas (isolated stand)

Spanish to English Marketing Marketing
Hola:

¿Cuál es el término en inglés para "islas"? Esta sección aislada en un supermercado ubicada en un punto estratégico para que sobresalga y de esta manera introducir un nuevo producto, o una oferta, promoción, etc..

Ojalá me puedan ayudar.

Isn't this in the gloss? I vaguely remember asking/answering a similar query in the past year or so. Here's one example I found: http://www.proz.com/kudoz/spanish_to_english/retail/151472-i...

We aim to please! My pleasure Isadora. Cheers, Noni.
Isadora MORA (asker) Jan 17, 2012:
Aceavila, that link is great! Thank you so much!!!
Noni Gilbert Riley Jan 17, 2012:
Done it! Hadn't even noticed, Mercedes! But now I've swapped it over for Isadora. Currently being seriously distracted by this paper: http://knowledge.wharton.upenn.edu/papers/1293.pdf on supermarket "paths". Now I must persuade myself back to work...

De todas formas, ¿la combinación no sería aquí del español al inglés?
Un saludo.

freestanding display units

If you really are talking about units which are separate from the main shelving along the aisles, then this should do it.

There are some photos of this type of unit in the link, although not all of them are for supermarkets.
