At Levata we often talk with retailers about the importance of an omnichannel strategy, and many of our partners are rethinking the shelf. Electronic shelf labels are a huge part of that strategy. They aren’t just a digital replacement for paper tags, they’re a foundational technology that connects pricing, promotions, and customer engagement directly to the shelf in real time. The real value lies in what they enable: 𝄃𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄀𝄁𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄃 Agility: dynamic pricing that keeps pace with competitors and demand. 𝄃𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄀𝄁𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄃 Accuracy: eliminating the friction of mismatched shelf and checkout prices. 𝄃𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄀𝄁𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄃 Efficiency: freeing up staff from manual updates to focus on the customer. 𝄃𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄀𝄁𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄃 Consistency: aligning online and in-store pricing for a seamless experience. 𝄃𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄀𝄁𝄃𝄂𝄂𝄃 Sustainability: reducing paper waste while cutting long-term costs. As retailers look for new ways to compete in an increasingly margin-sensitive environment, ESLs are becoming less of a “nice-to-have” and more of a competitive necessity. The shelf is no longer static, it’s becoming a dynamic, data-driven touchpoint in the customer journey. Retailers who recognize this shift early will be better positioned to win.
