What is RFID and How Does RFID Work?
What is RFID? RFID stands for Radio-Frequency Identification and refers to the use of radio waves to capture electronically stored information on a RFID card or tag.
RFID and Warehouses
RFID technology has taken off big time in the retail space in the last few years. Some of the biggest brands in the world, such as Target, Macy’s, and Kohl’s rely on RFID tags in their inventory to improve their supply chain. Retailers want to make sure their selling floors are stocked with the right inventory, and ensure what is sold online, is available in-store and vice-versa.
The buzzword for this is omnichannel retail. In reality, it’s simply keeping up with the times by meeting consumer demands. Customers expect to be able to shop and buy anywhere. To do so, retailers need a well-oiled, streamlined supply chain. A tall task that RFID technology is up for.
