Expanded U

Vendors outgrowing a 10×10 U-shape with a large product range

If you've been running a U-Shape in a 10×10 and keep running out of table space, this is the natural next step. The Expanded U uses the full 20-foot back wall with two tables end-to-end, and longer side runs that give you room to separate your product categories properly. The extra depth also means you can have a real checkout station instead of wedging a payment counter into a corner. The front stays wide open — same logic as the 10×10 U — but there's more room to pull people in before the back wall catches their eye. The risk with extra space is filling it. Resist the urge to load every surface. Use the additional table length to give products more breathing room, not to add more products.

Tips from the setup

  1. 01

    Back wall is still the anchor — put your best collection there. Two tables end-to-end should read as one curated run, not two separate displays.

  2. 02

    Use the extra side table length to create a price gradient: lower price near the open front, higher price deeper in on each side.

  3. 03

    A separate checkout station — not just a payment counter jammed in a corner — makes transactions feel more intentional. Put it front-left or front-right, slightly inside the booth.

  4. 04

    Leave 4–5 feet of open floor in the center. The extra depth tempts you to add a center table. Don't.
