U.K. retailer Tesco has partnered with Nedap to supply RFID readers for its large-scale technology deployment in 550 F&F clothing stores throughout the United Kingdom. Following a successful tender process including a pilot phase, Nedap was selected to supply the fixed RFID readers for goods receiving and tracking the in-store merchandise movements.

Merchandise availability

RFID gives F&F the needed visibility over the inventory for minimization of the traditional in-store stock accuracy problems and improve the availability of its merchandise on shelves. Once the roll-out is complete, F&F will use RFID technology to keep the system stock accurately reflecting the physical stock. In case of repeat orders it’ll be possible to avoid being ofitems out of stocks. The RFID solution is geared towards enhancing the shopping experience for F&F customers.

Richard Collins, COO at F&F think, that having accurate stock information is a driver for the whole business. “The RFID partnership with Nedap allows us to replenish stock from the Distribution Centre more efficiently and accurately, making more garment sizes available to customers and improving their overall in-store experience.”

RFID readers for in-store applications

Nedap’s floor-mounted !D Gate with RFID readers are installed in the back of house in the goods receiving area and between the stock room and the sales floor, to reliably monitor incoming goods and its movements from stock room to sales floor.

“Our main driver is making it simple for retailers to always have the right products available for their customers,” says Rob Schuurman, Managing Director at Nedap Retail. “We are excited to partner with F&F and have been impressed with the leadership and management of the RFID program and their journey to building a new platform. This will enable them to achieve competitive advantage, and we are committed to a successful RFID deployment that enables F&F to quickly benefit fully from this technology.”

Nedap’s readers meet the needs of global retail organizations through its GS1’s EPC Gen2 v2 and worldwide frequency regulation support. The selected solution features unique online device management for remote support and firmware updates, which provides a reliant post installation system.
