Localised Scenarios Designed for Australian Retail
At the Metcash Fresh Area booth, Hanshow presented a real-store retail environment that reflected the operational characteristics of the stores across Australia. ESLs were applied across fresh food and vegetable, meat, seafood, frozen, and bakery sections. The booth featured a side-by-side comparison between shelves equipped with ESLs and traditional paper labels, offering a clear, visual representation of the improvements in pricing accuracy, operational efficiency, and customer experience.
