ALAM Pricer Automatic Electronic Price Label machine

JRTech Solutions, the North Americam Partner to Pricer Inc., was chosen to provide the ALAM service for Pricer Inc.’s largest North American rollout to date.

A major U.S. grocer has begun rolling out thier entire chain of over 250 stores with Pricer’s line of Electronic Shelf Labels (ESL) and JRTech Solutions Inc. will provide the Automatic Label Apllicating Machine (ALAM) services for the project. Each store averages 20,000 ESL’s and the installs will take place at the rate of 1 store per week over a 4 to 5 year term.

JRTech Solutions Inc. is the only supplier of this custom service in North Americae. As well as providing the service of ALAM JRTech Solutions Inc. also builds and manufactures their own ALAM machines. Electronic Price Labels are the next major trend in retail technology and JRTech Solutions Inc. is providing the full turn key service for ESL from sales, installation, ALAM and service for the retail industry.

The Grocery Innovations Show, a trade show put on by the Canadian Federation of  Independent Grocers, will allow Canadian Grocery Retailers a chance to see ESL technology in action. JRTech Solutions will be providing live demonstrations with Electronic Shelf Label technology allowing retailers to see how flexible and economically-feasible electronic pricing can be.

This collaboration further fulfills JRTech’s commitment to providing high-tech retail solutions, allowing retailers to improve store efficiencies and reduce costs.

“Our ESL line will help retailers control their costs by reducing the inefficiency and expenses associated with manual price label changes. It will allow traditional retailers to behave more like online retailers and as a result, gain a unique and unprecedented competitive advantage in the bricks and mortar retail market,” says Jody D’Amico, President of JRTech Solutions.

The Electronic Shelf Label system offered by JRTech Solutions is controlled by infrared technology which permits two-way communication between the electronic price tag and the store’s price database. It allows retailers to update the pricing and product details throughout the store. Each label then emits a signal back to the system confirming that the change was applied. By employing this innovative technology, store owners will experience new flexibility in executing marketing campaigns and pricing strategies.

Furthermore, as retailers move away from providing consumers with paper and plastic bags, ESL technology provides yet another way for retailers to help preserve the environment.

“By eliminating the large amounts of paper and ink associated with printing and reprinting traditional price labels, retailers can have a positive impact on the environment,” says President of JRTech, Jody D’Amico.
