One of the fundamental differences between a home and a shop is that while a home needs to provide privacy to its occupants, a shop needs to attract as many visitors as possible.
Keeping this basic principle in mind, the science of vastu for shops has been formulated.
According to vastu for shops, the main entrance of a shop determines the natural light and the number of customers that a shop gets during the day. It also determines the location of the cash counter.
The person sitting at the cash counter of a shop loses control over the customers. Likewise, an owner sitting at the cash counter also loses control over the customers.
The location of the cash counter determines the control of an owner over the customers and also the profit of the shop.
In addition to implementing all the above mentioned principles, an owner should also ensure good customer service at an appropriate price so as to attract the customers.
North-East shop vastu is normally the first option suggested by a vastu shastra consultant.
The suggested reason for this preference is that north east is a good direction for customers and profit.
North east is considered good for shops dealing with stationery, groceries etc.
The main door of a north east shop should be located in the east.
The cash counter should be placed in the north or east direction and the cashier should face north or east.
The owner should sit in the south west of the shop and also face north or east.
According to Vastu Shastra for shops, a west facing shop is connected to the water element.
Although a shop with a north-east entrance attracts a natural flow of potential customers, a west-facing shop has the potential to success for businesses that need positive word of mouth to thrive and retain loyal customers.
The ideal location for the main entrance of a west facing shop is located on the north-west or west section of the shop’s front façade.
The cash counter should be located in the north or east section of the shop, and the cashier should face north or east.
The owner should have a clear view of the cash counter and should sit in the south-west section of the shop and face north.
For businesses that need to strictly adhere to Vastu Shastra, a shop with a south-facing entrance is one of the more restrictive situations, as the south element is considered as the most heavy and slow moving element.
To correct the Vastu of a shop with a south-facing entrance, the main entrance should be located on the south-east section of the south wall.
The cash counter should be located in the north section of the shop, and the cashier should face north.
The owner should sit in the south-west section of the shop, and should face north, and be seated against a supporting wall.
Some easy solutions: placing a U-shaped copper strip on the threshold, using bright lights in the north zone, and utilizing visual or material weight in the south-west area of the shop.

There are a set of rules that are true, regardless of the direction your shop is facing.
It is recommended to place storage and cabinets in the south or south-west areas and electrics and billing counters in the south-east.
The zone known as the Brahmasthan is better off with free and unobstructed movement of energy and is located in the center.
Heavy furniture and/or support columns should not be placed in this area.
As a rule of thumb, aggressive, dark colors should be avoided in shop interiors.
Additionally, a cluttered or dark shop entrance should be avoided.
From a practical standpoint, the first thing that is evaluated by Vedic Siddhi consultants is if there are any violation of the above mentioned rules.
Only after that is assessed, do the consultants evaluate directional violations of Vastu Shastra.
A cash counter with cash sinks facing South or with a cashier with back to customers are very common mistakes.
These are generally easy to correct by repositioning the cash counter.
Placing a mirrors across from the main entrance is also a very common mistake.
It is believed mirrors create an energy opposition which pushes the energy away from the shop.
A sub optimal first experience can negate the benefits of a correctly oriented shop.
Some of the common mistakes can be easily corrected.
Familiarizing yourself with basic Vastu Shastra can be useful, but every building has unusual characteristics and a qualified professional can be useful to identify them.
At Vedic Siddhi, our Vastu consultants evaluate your shop’s peculiar characteristics and provide suggestions which are tailored for your shop.
We ensure each of our client gets a recommendation report which is unique to them.
A shop’s success is largely dependent on the owners’ efforts.
If you are concerned about the direction of your shop and would like an expert to evaluate your shop for free, reach out to us.
North-east is the best as it helps in constant movement of customers and staff. Next is North direction. Shop owners located in these directions do not face much problems in day to day running of the business.
Businesses which are reputation based and need repeat customer (like a shop selling garments or a service/consultancy shop) can be located in West facing shop. Though West shop may not attract customer like North-east shop.
Yes, the main entrance can be shifted to North or East. Also the cash counter can be shifted to North, and south zone be made empty.
The cash counter should be in North or East zone and the person seated behind should face North or East.
As per the shop’s owner, the best location is the southwest corner. From there, you would face either north or east.
In terms of Vastu Shastra, such locations are the best. However, if a shop’s internal plan and layout are done as per the principles of Vastu Shastra, then a shop’s performance in any location would not be of major concern.
Classic cases of cause and effect prove that plenty of elements influence a shop’s profitability.
Among these, the direction of a shop’s entrance and the location of the cash counter and the shop’s owner’s seat, are the ones that can be manipulated to work for or against a shop’s profitability.
If you are considering moving your shop to a new location or improving an existing shop in the south or west location, it would be a good business decision to ensure that you’ve satisfied all the requirements of Vastu Shastra.
