Price Markdown
Solutions

Adapting quickly to changing customer
demands requires labelling solutions that are tailored precisely to
your business processes. Our services will help you to make your
price markdowns more efficient and ease the clearance of end-of-line
and perishable products. The ability to implement sale markdowns at
short notice is a vital activity for any retail operation. SATO’s
range of sale markdown systems offers a variety of solutions,
including two-colour thermal printing: the ultimate in efficient, eye
catching labels.
Promotional Labelling
Our promotional labelling solutions are
ideal for added value pricing needs such as multi-buys.
Labels are designed
and produced to your store requirements to reflect product
specifications and your individual branding. We offer two options,
firstly pre-printed labels which are especially beneficial for large
quantities as any promotional text can then be applied direct to the
product. Secondly we can provide blank labels to your store
requirements. This option allows you to select the appropriate SATO
product to overprint promotional pricing details. Promotional
labelling can be produced locally so that your staff can react
quickly when price changes are an immediate need.
Price
Labelling
To avoid customer confusion, pricing
labels on retail items need to be clear and legible. SATO offers a
range of options from simple
hand labellers to
ultra-portable wireless units capable of high resolution
printing in a range of fonts. Combined with SATO’s label design and
production capability these printers are capable of producing
outstanding results time after time.
Queue Busting
Surveys have shown that consumers’
single biggest complaint is queuing when ready to pay. SATO has a
range of queue busting solutions for speeding up this waiting time.
Utilising portable
hand-held barcode terminals and lightweight thermal printers,
SATO have developed systems to operate in various store
environments. Whether you have RFID technology in use or not SATO
has a solution to your queuing problems.
Shelf
Edge Labelling
Our shelf edge labelling products are
both convenient and cost effective; being portable they can be used
at the shelf edge. They also boast a ribbon free printing system
using thermal card giving a print clarity that is second to none. In
addition, a wide choice of fonts, colours and backgrounds can be
specified providing you with a distinctive result.
Stocktaking
In addition to our labelling solutions
we can also provide database software and hardware for hand - held
scanning systems, in order to make your stock take easier and more
efficient. Our systems can either be based on a batch collection
method, where data is uploaded via a data cradle or based on
wireless technology for real time updating of database records.
Swing Tickets
SATO can produce swing tickets in all
shapes, sizes and thicknesses, appropriate to the needs of the
brand. An over-printer can then be used to print any variable
information such as bar codes, pricing and size.
