Built from the retail floor up.
CAPST came out of a business that was already deep in the retail supply world — price tags, plastic display fixtures, shelf accessories, and the hardware that keeps store environments running. We spent years working with supermarkets, hypermarkets, and retail fit-out teams, learning what procurement teams look for and what site teams need to make a project run cleanly.
About five years ago, we started bringing LED lighting into our portfolio — specifically for refrigeration and shelving applications, where we saw a consistent gap between what the market was offering and what retail environments actually demanded. That's when we became an authorised distributor for Laidishine, a manufacturer whose products matched the commercial standards we were looking for.
Today, LED lighting is our core focus under the CAPST name. The retail accessories background didn't go away — it just means we approach LED specification the way a retail operator would, not just as a product catalogue.
