Waitrose initiates mobile printing deployment

Waitrose has implemented a new stock control system using 1,000 Zebra 220 Plus printers to produce price labels and barcodes for any stock that needs to be reduced


This is the biggest implementation of mobile printers in a UK retailer to date. “This builds on the positive work that our shops have been carrying out to cut food wastage” says Nick Hart, project manager, branch ordering development at Waitrose. “We are a fresh food retailer above all, so it is important that our stores ensure the highest levels of accuracy when ordering food. In addition to helping our branches minimise unsold food, this system has also enabled us to record increased data for further improved accuracy in future ordering - so we’re pleased with the initial results.”
