Why are more and more supermarkets starting to use E ink price label?

Speaking of smart devices in retail supermarkets, most middlemen and even end users may first think of self-service cash registers or self-service checkout terminals, as well as self-service checkout systems, and even various shelf products.

But in terms of actual application frequency and scope, the E ink price label on supermarket shelves are actually hidden in the supermarket and play a huge role.

Due to the problems of time-consuming and labor-intensive replacement, untimely replacement, easy errors, and high consumption of paper price tags on traditional supermarket shelves, more and more supermarkets want to break through and change, and from the perspective of long-term interests, more and more supermarkets are beginning to introduce E ink price tag.

The new E ink price tag not only have all the functions of paper labels, but also have functions that paper labels cannot achieve, such as remote control to modify prices anytime and anywhere, reusable and recyclable, low-power battery, ultra-long battery life, pre-tied binding of promotional templates, automatic switching of promotional prices, and automatic restoration of original prices after expiration.

Walmart USA has announced the expansion of the scope of use of E ink price label. By using electronic price tags In the past, it took two days to update the paper label price. Now, it only takes a few minutes to update the prices of more than 10,000 kinds of goods. Walmart said that by 2026, 2,500 stores will use electronic shelf labels.

With the development of intelligence, labor costs have become very expensive. In supermarkets, managers need to bring more humanized experiences to consumers, free the hands of service sales staff, and let them bring more emotional transmission to consumers that cannot be replaced by machines, such as introducing more comprehensive functions and usage methods of the products sold to customers, as well as personal usage experience, emotional communication and analysis, so as to better increase the shopping experience for consumers, because no matter how smart machines develop, they cannot replace the emotional communication between shoppers and service staff during the consumption process.

Therefore, some labor-based repetitive work should be completed by intelligent electronic shelf labels. and there will be no mistakes.

So that supermarket service staff can save more time and have more human communication with shoppers. It also brings a better shopping experience to supermarkets.
