What if every item in your stores, warehouses, and digital channels could be identified with the same level of confidence? For general retailers and department stores, small operational gaps can quickly become costly at scale. Avery Dennison helps bring greater accuracy to every item, giving teams a more reliable view of stock as it moves across the business. With connected retail technology and stronger loss-prevention capabilities, retailers can keep inventory, security, and service working in sync.
What this segment is up against
Department stores and general retailers operate with a level of complexity few formats can match. With thousands of SKUs moving across categories, locations, and channels, even a small gap in accuracy can quickly become a significant business problem.
That pressure is growing. Shrink is becoming harder to manage, fulfillment now depends on inventory data that many legacy systems cannot reliably provide, and shoppers expect the speed and ease of digital in every physical store. Closing these gaps starts with a more precise understanding of each item: what is in the building, where it is, and the value it represents.
What we do
We help general retailers turn operational scale into an advantage. By tagging products at the source and connecting them through RFID, NFC, and digital identification, Avery Dennison gives every item a clearer role in the retail ecosystem. Floor teams can work from more accurate stock data. Loss prevention teams gain stronger signals about movement and risk. Shoppers benefit from a faster, more connected path to purchase. Because the same data infrastructure extends across channels, retailers can keep everything aligned.

Why choose us
Built for the format: We understand the operational reality of running large stores with broad assortments, and we build solutions sized for that scale rather than retrofitting brand-specific tools.
Integration without disruption: Our platforms work with the IT systems department stores already run, so RFID, frictionless checkout, and analytics roll out without stalling daily operations
From data to decisions: Real-time analytics across inventory, loss, and consumer behavior translate directly into stocking, staffing, and merchandising decisions your teams can act on this week, not next quarter.
