1. A valance lighting assembly for illuminating an area proximate to commercial equipment, the valance lighting assembly comprising:
a dispenser structure configured as a support substrate for receiving the valance lighting assembly;
a base including one or more base panels defining a two-dimensionally-enclosed frame structure, the base configured to be removably coupled to the dispenser structure;
a continuous illumination element coupled to and extending along a width of an exterior face of at least some of the one or more base panels in a predetermined contour; and
an outer shroud including one or more valance panels arranged to partially cover the base by extending longitudinally parallel to the at least some of the one or more base panels at a predetermined offset depth from the exterior face, thereby creating a cavity between the exterior face and the one or more valance panels, wherein a line defining a first end of the one or more valance panels follows a shape of the predetermined contour, and wherein the continuous illumination element is recessed within the cavity and utilizes the exterior face of the at least some of the one or more base panels to reflect light to the area proximate to the commercial equipment.
