Renner Case Study

Increase data quality, reduce out-of-stocks and improve stock visibility to help drive online sales.

Sensormatic Solutions’ Inventory Intelligence portfolio of technology began rolling out at Renner in 2019. By the end of 2021, RFID labels and tags were on all items in the retailer’s stores. Today, more than 500 million products sold by Renner utilise radio frequency identification technology, with more than 4 million readings performed daily.

Renner is currently expanding the number of self-checkout terminals featuring RFID technology. In 2022, the number of stores with self-checkout jumped from 13 to 133, reaching a total of 437 self-service points. This year, the forecast is for another 90 new terminals.

Take stock with a high level of accuracy, increasing top line revenue/sales, improving stock turnover and providing a single view of all available stock, down to the last unit for the digital store.

Through electronic tags, accessible by electromagnetic signal, each item can be uniquely identified at SKU level, providing real-time insights on product stock and allowing for more effective and efficient inventory management.

• Out-of-stock rate was reduced by 87%.
• Inventory accuracy increased by 64%.
• Improved data precision made it possible to know in detail the movement of items within the store, providing information such as which items were taken to the fitting room and which were not chosen by the customers.
• Enhanced stock visibility with integration between physical and online channels, strengthening Renner’s omnichannel strategy.
• Today Renner has the ability to take stock on a monthly basis – previously only possible once a year – as the process now takes just a few hours.
• More efficient checkout process; simultaneous reading of all purchase items allows for quicker product scanning, payment, deactivation of alarm tags and receipt delivery.
