How it works

This phrase combines a noun (商品 - shouhin, products), a particle (が - ga, subject marker), an onomatopoeic adverb (ズラリと - zurarito, in a row/neatly), and a verb (並ぶ - narabu, to line up/be arranged). ズラリと emphasizes the orderly, often numerous, arrangement. The verb 並ぶ is intransitive, meaning the products themselves are lining up.
