customer walk
Explanation:
Followed by the first bullet point:
"(seen from) the customer's perspective/angle" or "the customer's view".

As I see it, employees come together to inspect/walk through the shop departments in order to find out how customers perceive the shop arrangements.

neutral  Steffen Walter: No actual customers take part in this IMHO (what's meant is that employees try to see the shop as if they were customers). Not 100% sure, though.

touring/inspecting the store/facility/premise from the customers' viewpoint


Explanation:
I think with Runde they are referring to actually walking around the store to see things that the customer may notice, to see the store the way customers experience it.
