Is your merchandise inventory missing the mark during peak selling moments?

Ensuring every game day is as successful for retailers as it is for fans

During game days, when stadiums fill with thousands of fans, retail opportunities spike as attendees look to buy merchandise. These moments are crucial for retailers at sports venues because selling happens in bursts: before the game, during quarters or periods, at halftime, and after the final whistle. Traditional inventory methods often falter under such demand spikes, resulting in lost sales and dissatisfied fans.

At Frequentiel , we specialize in RFID solutions that not only keep merchandise in stock, visible, and ready for checkout at lightning speed but also enable sales associates to swiftly locate products. Our Octo+ Retail SaaS system brings you precision and efficiency, crucial for high-pressure sales environments. Through the use of readers placed between the sales floor and stockroom, our system determines the approximate location of a product, which is then displayed on a mobile computer. Associates can then switch to search mode to find the product, drastically reducing search time.

A Strategic Advantage for Retailers

1. Accurate Inventory Tracking: With RFID, retailers can achieve up to 99% accuracy in stock levels. This precision ensures that merchandise like jerseys, caps, and accessories are adequately stocked and available when fans are ready to buy. Retail staff can, at a glance, discern which items are selling fast and which are plentiful, preventing stock-outs and ensuring fans can always find their desired merchandise.
2. Automated Replenishment Orders: Up-to-date data triggers immediate replenishment orders, ensuring correct stock swiftly moves from the storeroom to the sales floor. This feature benefits not only official merch boutiques but also kiosk locations throughout the stadium. Kiosks running low on specific items can access and reserve items from the main store or nearby kiosks for quicker delivery, effectively meeting customer demands.

Extending Beyond Game Days

While our RFID solutions are indispensable during game days, their utility extends far beyond. They provide actionable insights that forecast future demand and manage inventory efficiently throughout the season. This strategic foresight significantly minimizes instances of overstock and understock, thereby reducing waste and unnecessary expenses. By streamlining logistics processes, it paves the way for a leaner operation that maximizes both profitability and sustainability.

Implementing Frequentiel’s RFID technology transforms inventory management and retailers can meet fan enthusiasm with reliable, efficient service—ensuring no sales are lost, and every fan leaves satisfied. Our solution is proven, powerful, and ready to deploy. It’s about leading the retail game confidently in high-stakes environments.
