Presentation Summary

  • Every year, Britain's retailers lose millions of pounds through shrinkage. This is primarily due to customer and employee theft. We've developed a new EPCglobal standard to help retailers tackle the problem of shrinkage. David will give a high level overview of the new EPCglobal RFID/EAS standard, it's benefits to retailers and manufacturers and provide a summary of a recent case study where the technology has been used and delivered real value to a large clothing retailer's bottom line.
