Makro tested Pricer’s solution for two years before making the rollout decision.
“We know from experience that when a retailer realizes the potential for cost savings and efficiency improvements in our solution, more business usually follows. It is of course valuable to have a relationship with the world’s largest retail chain as well”, says Fredrik Berglund, CEO at Pricer.
“The primary motivation for deploying electronic shelf labels is to maintain a competitive edge in delivering benefits to our customers,” says Garry Hendry, Liquor director at Makro. “The way the system works is that it ensures labels consistently display accurate prices for the relevant items so our customers know they won't face a discrepancy at the till point. Electronic labels are quick to update which ensures promotional items are updated timeously and are not mis-priced. There are also numerous additional operational benefits.”
