About RFID
The radio-frequency identification (RFID) systems comprise tags, middleware, and interrogators, and are used by retail businesses to streamline their supply chain to help them achieve higher ROI by providing transparency and real-time data of inventory levels across supply chains. RFID systems for retail application reduce the delivery cycle time of goods and number of defects. With the help of RFID systems, retailers are also able to capture data, which, in conjunction with data management software and “Big Data analysis” helps them identify buying patterns of customers and formulate promotional schemes to promote their businesses and increase sales. RFID systems can be implemented at different stages of the supply chain depending on the nature of the business.
Technavio's analysts forecast the global RFID market for retail applications to grow at a CAGR of 40% over the period 2014-2019.
