Which statement about planograms is true?

• A. A planogram is a decorative chart with store logos.
• B. A planogram helps ensure consistent product placement across multiple store locations.
• C. A planogram sets staffing levels.
• D. A planogram schedules promotions.

Answer: (B)

Planograms map out shelf layouts to standardize where products sit on the shelf, how many facings they receive, and how much space each category occupies. This consistency across store locations helps shoppers find items more easily and makes shelf replenishment and audits more efficient for the merchandising team. Because of that, the statement that planograms help ensure consistent product placement across multiple store locations is true. They are not decorative charts with logos, and they don’t set staffing levels or schedule promotions—those tasks use separate planning tools like staffing plans and promotional calendars.
