Why electronic shelf labels?
The shelf edge is the last thing a shopper reads before deciding. Digitising it changes what the store can do on any given morning.
Accuracy
One source of truth
Shelf and till read the same file, so the two can never drift apart between print runs.
Speed
Minutes, not days
A full estate reprice is pushed centrally instead of printed, cut, carried and clipped in.
Labour
Hours back on the floor
The repetitive part of price management disappears and staff time returns to customers.
Waste
No print run
No laminate, no reprints, no bin of last week’s prices behind the checkout.
Paper vs digital
The same price change, both ways.
Four facings in one bay. Push the change and watch how long the shelf edge takes to agree with the till.

Digital timing reflects a central push confirming back from the label. Paper timing is the physical task — printing, cutting, walking the bay and clipping each one in.

Labour only. It does not count pricing errors avoided, promotions that go live on time, or paper and printing no longer bought.
An indicative model, not a quotation. Real pricing depends on store layout, label size mix, fixings, network survey and integration scope. We confirm figures after a site survey.
