-- Boekhandels Groep Nederland (BGN), the Netherlands' largest bookseller
with 42 stores, speeds inventory tasks with a CaptureTech item-level RFID
solution using Impinj Monza-powered tags and Impinj Speedway readers. BGN
tags every book in their central warehouse then tracks the books to stores.
The in-store RFID system captures and manages inventory data such as book
location and out of stock conditions. Results of ROI analysis at one RFID-
enabled "smart store" show a greater than 12 percent increase in sales as
well as a decrease in inventory costs and inventory labor hours.
-- Rolec, one of Holland's leading distributors of primary school
educational materials, improves asset and order accuracy with a CaptureTech
RFID solution utilizing Impinj Speedway readers to track plastic-wrapped
pallets of goods at busy distribution centers. The solution ensures that
100% of school shipments match product orders.
"The European supply chain is rapidly becoming RFID-enabled," said Louis
Bianchin, senior RFID analyst and program manager for VDC. "The
collaboration between Impinj and CaptureTech, which marries leading RFID
technology with extensive deployment expertise and deep knowledge of local
requirements, is key to successful and widespread RFID adoption in the
region."
