Why neck trays work
• Engagement lift: Mobility cuts wait times and typically yields 2–4× more samples/hour in select tests.[1]
• Mobility wins: Promoters reach customers in aisles/queues, increasing touchpoints vs fixed counters.
• Comfort: Adjustable straps and lightweight build keep teams active longer.
