Zavvi stores were divided into three primary sections: visual media, games and music.
The games department comprised games and accessories for all of the major consoles from the Xbox 360, PS3, PS2, Wii, DS and PSP along with some PC games.
The visual media department primarily consisted of DVDs. By March 2008, with the demise of the HD DVD format, Zavvi stores only stocked the Blu-ray High-definition video format. The visual media section was sub-divided into animation, children's, comedy, documentary, DVD boxsets, chart/new releases, health & fitness, martial arts, music, world cinema, TV drama and films.
The music department featured a chart wall of the top 100 albums. The stores' back-catalogue was sub-divided into blues, children's, classical, country, pop, rock, easy listening, folk, jazz, metal, dance, R&B, hip-hop/rap, reggae, soundtracks and world music. As of September 2008, Zavvi stores no longer stocked singles or featured a separate chart wall for the top ten singles.
Music merchandise included badges, magazines, posters and stickers were also stocked along with board games, MP3 players and wall art, among other things. Following a successful trial period for books, all Zavvi stores began stocking books in March 2008. In July 2008, 19 Zavvi stores began stocking T-Shirts, which was rolled out to all stores soon after.

Famous quotes containing the words product and/or range:
“Perhaps I am still very much of an American. That is to say, naïve, optimistic, gullible.... In the eyes of a European, what am I but an American to the core, an American who exposes his Americanism like a sore. Like it or not, I am a product of this land of plenty, a believer in superabundance, a believer in miracles.”
—Henry Miller (1891–1980)
“During the cattle drives, Texas cowboy music came into national significance. Its practical purpose is well known—it was used primarily to keep the herds quiet at night, for often a ballad sung loudly and continuously enough might prevent a stampede. However, the cowboy also sang because he liked to sing.... In this music of the range and trail is “the grayness of the prairies, the mournful minor note of a Texas norther, and a rhythm that fits the gait of the cowboy’s pony.””
—Administration in the State of Texa, U.S. public relief program (1935-1943)
