I really don't understand this

I couldn't have even guessed what the meaning of it here
"I stopped by the shop today and saw an all new revamped end CAP FIXTURE of the brand."
Is it "recapped" fixture the writer was trying to say? It'd be more understandable that way and I'm not even sure if "recapped" is the usual culturally-compact expression.

This is very obscure. An end-cap fixture is a special type of display case used in stores. "revamped" means that the style has been updated.

In most grocery stores there are long aisles full of merchandise, with shorter racks at each end, perpendicular to the long aisles. Those are the end caps.

They used the singular, which refers to one particular fixture.
Apparently this one display case was used for a specific brand of merchandise.

Store fixtures refer to all sorts of things that are installed in a building to make a store - light fixtures, display cases, and so on. When a store goes out of business, they sometimes sell all the remaining inventory and the fixtures.
