Label and shelf-edge printing for a retail operation

Barcode and price labels printed from live data rather than a separate design file.

  • Template-based label design
  • Print from live item data
  • Batch printing on price change
  • Shelf-edge and product labels

The problem

Labels were produced in a design program from exported spreadsheets, so printed prices drifted from system prices and re-pricing was a manual exercise.

What we built

We built label printing directly from the item record, with templates per label size, so what prints is what the system holds.

Modules delivered

  • Printer configuration per station

What changed

What the delivered system does differently from the process it replaced.

  • Printed prices match system prices
  • Re-pricing prints only the affected labels
  • Templates are reused across stations

Why this customer is not named

Most of our customers allow the work to be described but not their name published. Where a customer has given permission, their name and testimonial appear here.

Independent accounts of our work are published by customers themselves on our Facebook reviews page.

Does this look like your problem?

If any of this is familiar, the first step is the same one this project started with: a free requirement study that ends in a written scope and a fixed price.
