Using Pricer ESL in combination with TOSHIBA TEC’s Point of Sale hardware and the storeMate retail automation suite, retail businesses can quickly build and deploy sophisticated high performance business applications. Pricer CEO Charles Jackson on the changing economic landscape and the opportunities for smart retail technologies: “Now comes the urgency issue for retailers. Commoditization introduces fierce price and service competition. P&L pressures will continue to drive the need to increase productivity and efficiency. Customer satisfaction will increasingly become important from lower queue time to effective signage. These different forces are increasingly converging and will drive automation and ESL growth.” TOSHIBA TEC President and CEO Masamichi Kusunoki said: "Organizations across Europe are looking for ways to increase efficiency, save money, and gain a competitive edge over the competition.
