Goals

RFID technology in application with the pre-packed meat and sausage supply chain identifies the potential for optimization in the supply chain from the supplier to the REWE distribution center to the supermarkets with an emphasis on logistics.

Approach

Transport containers were tagged with EPC/RFID transponders operating in the UHF frequency range. These tags were automatically read upon completion of commissioning as well as on passing through dock doors in the shipping/goods receiving process. Automation of data capture in this manner equates to a reduction of effort and costs in the various process steps.
