In a large store, such as a hypermarket or DIY store, finding a product is not always easy. Layouts differ between stores, chains and countries, and shoppers find themselves at the mercy of finding a staff member who is available to help them. Of course, there is also the risk that they simply give up and walk out if they cannot find the product. Various attempts have been made to resolve this over the years:
Pricer offers an automated solution to this problem. By dynamically positioning each and every label, the system knows exactly where all products are on a map. These positions can then be searched using the Pricer Quick Search tool, which is available at a kiosk and as a mobile web search. Typically, a few search kiosks are placed throughout the store, allowing shoppers to conveniently search for products. Links to the mobile Quick Search can be provided with a simple QR code, enabling anyone with a smartphone to use the search.
