Future Shop ESL
Future Shop Pty Ltd
ESL replaces paper ticketing and delivers significant operational efficiencies and labour savings for retailers
Future Shops advanced ESL (Electronic Shelf Label) technology integrates seamlessly with your existing Fred POS, to maximize the value of your current infrastructure. From streamlining operations to enhancing pricing accuracy and improving customer experiences, Future Shop with Fred provides shelf edge technology to future-proof your pharmacy and achieve lasting success.
Manual pricing is time-consuming, costly and open to error. Not to mention the environmental footprint created by millions of paper labels. ESL saves on labour, minimises wastage, and ensures 100% accuracy.
Inaccurate, or missing, price labels cause customer dissatisfaction and lost sales – ESL ensures that the price on the shelf is always the same as the price at your Fred POS.
Customers love promotions, and with ESL, offers can be instantly delivered to the shelf-edge, saving time and increasing basket size.
