Spanish term or phrase: islas (isolated stand)
Hola:

¿Cuál es el término en inglés para "islas"? Esta sección aislada en un supermercado ubicada en un punto estratégico para que sobresalga y de esta manera introducir un nuevo producto, o una oferta, promoción, etc..

Ojalá me puedan ayudar.

freestanding display units


Explanation:
If you really are talking about units which are separate from the main shelving along the aisles, then this should do it.

There are some photos of this type of unit in the link, although not all of them are for supermarkets.
