Background
A new concept in beauty and health retail in Europe, the company offers a wide range of high-end perfumes, cosmetics, personal care products, and medical-care items for the whole family, all while combining comfort and convenience. Customers appreciate the extensive selection of quality goods, competitive prices, and convenient locations. Committed to enhancing the shopping experience with efficiency and comfort, the retailer adopted Chainway’s C5000 handheld terminals to improve customer service, minimize shopping time, and reduce operational costs.
Challenges
There are a wide range of products in store, so inventory checking by manual operations leads to heavy workload and high error rate.
Inventory visibility is low and replenishment can't be made in time, so that supply shortage or out of stock often happens.
It is quite difficult to quickly locate the exact merchandise that customers need.
All the sales data have to be transcribed to a fixed PC terminal, which is inefficient and error-prone.
Headquarters couldn't keep abreast of the newest sales data to make a quick response to the changing market.
Solutions
Integrated with barcode scanning technology, C5000 can automatically identify goods information by scanning their unique 2D barcodes, just like citizen's unique passports or driver licenses. By an easy wave of Chainway mobile readers, workers can quickly and accurately collect and match information of all merchandises in warehouse. Then stocktaking, sorting and order picking become quicker and more precise.
Application Details

Upon the arrival of goods, each carton is pasted with a barcode which will distinguish it from others. By scanning the barcode, the database will synchronize the records, confirming their entering into warehouses. The label has already been written into information like product name, category, production date, exact place where it should be placed, and etc. The warehouse keepers can then quickly and accurately put them away on the right shelf.
