Macy’s is RFID-enabling its stores by asking suppliers to apply passive UHF tags to “replenishment items”—products regularly stocked and automatically resupplied when sold to customers. The goods being tagged consist of size-intensive replenishment categories, such as men’s and women’s undergarments, men’s slacks, denim apparel and women’s shoes, accounting for approximately 30 percent of the retailer’s sales. Learn how the solution is being used to reduce out-of-stocks on store shelves, and why the firm expects that the effort will lead to increased sales revenue.
