Retail Programs and Information: Members have access to the Shelfspace Helpdesk to ask questions about running your business.  Should we not have the answers at our fingertips, there is usually someone in our community who does.  Shelfspace members enjoy access to the Shelfspace Retail Library and Resources section that include some of the most comprehensive compilations of retail information.  From our publications to PEAK Retail Training, retailers can access the most up-to-date and relevant information available.

What are members saying?

"I have been a member of Shelfspace formerly Alberta Retail Association for almost a year now. Being a member offered me fantastic rates to ease up expenses for my point of sale terminal merchant services. Best of all is the phenomenal support I receive from the Member Development Representative, and the Shelfspace Retail Help Desk. I know when I have a concern or a question I can call 1-800-663-5135 and receive the direction and the resources that I need. As a small business entrepreneur, every dollar counts, for the nominal annual fee, Shelfspace, is well worth the investment." - Janice Mitchell, Choices 111
