How Tag'n'Track helps retailers

Tag'n'Track for Retail gives stores and distribution centres accurate, item-level stock. Deliveries are verified on arrival, whole stores are counted in hours with handheld readers, replenishment follows real stock, exit readers flag unpaid items and store fixtures and equipment are kept on a register.

Typical choices: item-level labels and hang tags, handheld readers for counts, fixed readers at stockroom doors, exit readers, label printers.
