Retail store solution
Get real-time visibility into inventory, location and movement - from stockroom to sales floor and checkout.
Connect inventory, location and movement in real time. From receiving and stockroom to sales floor and checkout. Start with the level of visibility you need today and scale as your operation evolves.
There is no single RFID solution that fits every retailer. That's why M&A has built a step-by-step model with four complementary solutions that build on each other, so you can start fast and scale with confidence.
All four solutions run on the same ARC Suite platform, share the same data layer and integrate with your existing POS, WMS or ERP. Every step adds value independently and compounds value when combined.

Every item is tracked across its full in-store journey, giving your team the visibility to act before problems happen, not after.
Receiving
RFID-tagged goods are scanned hands-free at the receiving portal, matched to the purchase order and added to inventory.
Backroom → floor
Transition portals detect the moment an item moves from stockroom to sales floor, keeping location data accurate.
Sales floor
Overhead readers track real-time item locations; staff receive refilling tasks automatically when stock runs low.
Checkout
Self-checkout, smart fitting rooms and click & collect connect the same live inventory directly to the shopper.
Store exit
EAS/RFID gates detect unauthorised removal and trigger instant alerts — with item-level identification on the dashboard.
