An effective solution for creating labels for supermarket fresh produce departments
Since 2018, 42 Mix-Markt supermarkets in Germany have chosen the all-in-one Edikio Price Tag solution for labelling their fresh produce.
The challenge: The efficient and rapid creation of price labels in supermarkets
Specialising in importing products from Eastern Europe, the Monolith group is one of Europe's largest wholesalers, with almost 300 Mix-Markt supermarkets.
Initially, Monolith's head office purchased an Evolis printer to issue its payment cards. The head of the West region was then seduced by the all-in-one Edikio Price Tag solution to replace the price labels in the butcher's and fishmonger's departments, which were printed on paper and then laminated. After daily cleaning with water, these paper labels quickly became damp and unusable, and had to be reprinted regularly.
With Edikio Price Tag, the manager of the Western region has found a fast, efficient alternative for creating and printing price tags on plastic cards.
The solution: Printed price tags made easy with Edikio Price Tag Access
After an initial successful trial, the Monolith Ouest regional unit ordered solutions from German reseller Identbase. Edikio Price Tag Access for the region's 42 Mix-Markt stores.
Since 2018, these supermarkets have been using the Edikio Price Tag solution to create and print price labels directly in-store for fresh produce in their butchery and fish departments.
Staff training took place over the phone, and employees quickly got to grips with the Edikio Price Tag solution thanks to its simplicity and easy-to-use software.
The result: between 80 and 150 labels in constant use in the fresh produce section.
Since the installation of Edikio Price Tag Access solutions in supermarkets, employees have spent much less time preparing their labels.
The 42 supermarkets gave very positive reviews on the use and results of Edikio Price Tag. Price tags on plastic cards are now more hygienic than the old paper versions, and the counters are more aesthetically pleasing. Teachers use black cards printed in white to display :
- The brand logo
- Product information
- Allergens
- And the prices.
Between 80 and 150 labels are used in the fresh produce departments of each shop, and are only reprinted if product information or prices change.
