Bilingual POS without visual clutter

Practical ways to keep Thai and English store materials readable under fluorescent light.

Bangkok stores mix languages, lighting, and fixture constraints. Bilingual POS fails when both languages compete for the same visual weight.

Assign roles: primary language carries the offer; secondary language confirms eligibility and limits. Shared icons and numbers reduce the need for mirrored paragraphs.

Print tests matter. What looks balanced on a laptop screen can collapse on corrugated board under cool store lighting. Always proof at actual size before a wave ships.

Keep mechanics short enough for a cashier to recite. If staff need a training video to explain a shelf talker, the toolkit is unfinished.
