At the event, a Nedap key speaker stressed the importance of EAS Source Tagging in the fight against shoplifting. It was emphasised that there\u2019s little use installing expensive\u00a0security systems, without using labels and tags. In particular, Suppliers can help by source tagging product at meat factories\/vineyard or warehouse.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Source Tagging is the application of EAS security tags at the source of the product. Suppliers or manufacturers tag the products before shipping them to the retailer. \u201cThere are a number of key advantages to the Retailer, as source tagging eliminates the labour cost of applying the labels and gets merchandise onto the shelf faster,\u201d noted Tom Dunlea. \u201cThere are other factors that are appealing, such as security labels applied inside product packaging and for the Supplier, preserving the product\u2019s attractive appearance. But the key advantage, we would emphasise, is that Source Tagging makes labels easier to conceal and therefore harder to remove.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To reduce economic shrinkage in their stores, one major retailer is now Source Tagging a selection of high shrinkage products such as meat, wines and spirits, health and beauty products from suppliers across several countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIt will be interesting to watch the results of this endeavour,\u201d adds Tom Dunlea. \u201cThis could go from being a preference to a necessity before we know it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n
