Electronic price tags for the Kloster pharmacy in Jestetten
The pharmacist couple Karen and Andreas Weissenberger run several branches in the south-westernmost corner of Germany near Zurich. The Kloster pharmacy in Jestetten is one of the modernly designed shops. In the course of a move, the sales area increased and with it the product range. In the course of this, the decision was quickly made to continue using electronic price labels on the shelves in the sales area.
The challenge: the label types used until then were no longer produced in small quantities by the manufacturer SES, which made a system change necessary. Together with our partner Pixely, e-shelf-labels was able to procure and pre-install the necessary hardware as a distributor.
For the salesroom of the Kloster pharmacy in Jestetten, the choice fell on 3,200 electronic labels of the smallest size (SES imagotag VUSION 1.6) in conjunction with the VUSION Cloud system, as well as an additional 800 labels with a display diagonal of 2.6 inches. The biggest challenge here: the short procurement time, as the relocation and reopening of the new pharmacy branch was already imminent.
Power supply via shelf
With the help of special merchandise supports from Visplay, the labels supplied by e-shelf-labels can be supplied with power directly via the shelf. This required a conversion of the labels on site, which we reliably organised. An easy-to-use mobile web app from Pixely is now used in daily operation and for loading the labels.
Expectations met
"You were able to fulfil our expectations of the project 100%. Above all, our processes for electronic price labelling have improved thanks to e-shelf-labels. Anyone who has several thousand items in the display knows how relieving this is. I don't think it can be described in words." - Andreas Weissenberger, pharmacist
With the help of e-shelf-labels, a perfectly suitable price labelling system was found, promptly procured and installed for the Kloster pharmacy. The electronic labels made it possible to modernise the salesroom. The time spent on maintaining prices and listings has been reduced enormously. Pharmacist Andreas Weissenberger: "An analysis has shown that about 3.5 to 4 hours of time can be saved per day. This helps us further with the current staff situation."
