On-shelf SRP design
During 2006, Mills and ICA Norway worked collaboratively on an SRP solution for Soft Flora Light.
Objectives: to (i) reduce replenishment costs and shrinkage, and (ii) increase sales through improved product visibility, and (iii) On shelf availability (OSA).
Re-designed packaging solution delivered significant productivity savings on product replenishment, equating to a total of approximately €375,000.

Retailers and restaurants use RFID to track condition of goods.
Examples: Retailers install sensors with RFID tags in order to monitor food temperature during foods’ shipment to prevent spoilage
The store can identify foods that are going to spoil.
Ex: Pintokona, a restaurant in Japan, is using RFID technology to ensure that only the most fresh fish is served to its customers.
