Checkpoint Systems Introduces New Solutions for Food Retailers to Reduce Shrink,
Enhance Merchandise Availability
iS AutoPeg Tag, 4210 EP Food Label Can Be
Applied In-Store or at Source
MEMPHIS -
Checkpoint Systems, Inc., a leading global supplier of merchandise
availability solutions for the retail industry, today announced here at the
FMI Asset Protection Conference two solutions for food retailers that are
specifically designed to reduce shrink and boost merchandise availability for
hard-to-protect items.
iS AutoPeg Tag
Checkpoint's iS AutoPeg Tag offers food retailers secure protection for
high-risk peg hook merchandise such as batteries, razor blades and ink
cartridges with a one-step, pinless tag. This solution snaps quickly and safely
on single- or double-hole packaging and can be easily removed at point of sale
(POS) for reuse. It is lightweight and strong, preserves product branding, is
RFID upgradeable for inventory visibility and can be source applied. A senior LP
executive from a large mass merchant said, "We tested this product for a large
number of SKUs as part of a major pilot study and were impressed with how easy
it was to apply and remove at POS; most importantly, with AutoPeg we increased
sales by 30 percent compared to the EAS on-shelf protection method we use for
personal care products. In addition, we are able to more efficiently manage
shelf and warehouse space."
4210 EP Food Label
The 4210 EP Food Label is one of the very few microwave-safe certified solutions
on the market and features enhanced security performance for food retailers
needing to protect fresh and frozen food items that are being increasingly
targeted for theft. It is one of the world's smallest food-safe RF label, and
can easily be integrated into price/scale labels for maximum protection,
enabling food retailers to improve on-shelf availability. In addition, because
the solution is very thin, it maximizes space on retailers' planograms. Like the
iS AutoPeg, it can be applied in store or at source, which saves labor time and
ensures all high-risk merchandise arrives secure and ready for sale. In
addition, Checkpoint offers custom printing options for the new food label,
which allows retailers to print store messages on labels, including their brand,
if so desired.
