Marketing - Marketing / Market Research / type of shelf advertising
Danish term or phrase: hyldesvippere
This is one medium in a list that may be used in a legal contract to advertise a product (among things such as banners, bus shelters, etc.). Something to do with shelves, but I don't know the exact word. Could it be 'shelf slips', whatever they are? No luck with ordbogen.com/V&B/H&L.
Thanks in advance.

Explanation:
I wonder if it isn't the same as "hyldevipper". Have a look at this old kudoz question, which I came across on google.

It sounds right.

agree  Mads Grøftehauge: Yup, but 'hyldesvirper' is actually a more common form in Danish. Search for it using Google or see http://www.idefabrikken.dk/hyldesvirp.htm
