High-volume retailers pile demands on packaging (sidebar)

Data says RFID helps Wal-Mart cut out-of-stocks by 16%

One of packaging’s purposes is to help retailers solve logistics problems. Radio-frequency identification (RFID) is helping packaging fulfill that purpose.

Wal-Mart, for example, saw out-of-stocks drop by 16% in stores using RFID tags on cases. That number comes from a study by the University of Arkansas that assessed a dozen Wal-Mart stores in the retailer’s RFID initiative. The study covered a 29-week period. Wal-Mart commissioned the study, which was done independently and led by Bill Hardgrave, director of the university’s RFID Research Center.
