Saks' RFID Deployment Ensures Thousands of Shoes Are on Displayf

With 4,000 individual shoes on display at any given time, Saks Fifth Avenue's flagship store in New York City has the mammoth task of ensuring that the correct shoe styles are in the proper locations, and that none are missing. With the use of a radio frequency identification system provided by Tyco Retail Solutions, the store has raised its display compliance rates from 65 percent to nearly 100 percent. That means that if a style of shoes is available in the backroom, a sample is on display for customers.
