The Cellular Connection, Midwest USA’s largest Verizon Wireless Premium Retailer, selected Pricer’s Dot Matrix displays for a company-wide roll out in all of its retail stores. Pricer’s graphic Electronic Shelf Labels (ESL) are being installed at 215 company owned locations selling mobile telephones and other wireless devices and accessories. This project is valued at approximately 7 MSEK and installations are expected to be completed by the end of 2011. Implementation and support is carried out by Pricer’s partner, MarginMate.
“We are proud to have been selected by this national retailer,” says Charles Jackson, Pricer’s CEO. “This is the first roll out in a non-food retailer in America and reflects the growing awareness of ESL value in implementing corporate pricing and merchandising policy.”
“We selected Pricer’s graphic Dot Matrix ESLs due to their versatility, low power consumption and excellent readability from all angles. The Dot Matrix solution enables us to display and change product information, prices and other operational related data accurately and efficiently,” says Scott Moorehead, The Cellular Connection CEO. “Our staff is now able to provide better service to our customers, and our stores have the look and feel of an innovative industry leader, which we are.”
