NRF Opens RFID Resource Center

The National Retail Federation (NRF) has opened a Web-based radio frequency identification resource center, at www.nrf.com/rfid, to help retailers and manufacturers get information on RFID technology.

Since Wal-Mart Stores Inc. and the Target Corp. announced initiatives to implement the technology in their warehousing operations, the NRF has been inundated with requests for information. The Web site will contain research data, news and trends regarding the technology.

“RFID is quickly becoming a reality for retailers,” said NRF Chief Information Officer David Hogan. “This resource center is designed to keep retailers informed of the latest developments and reach out to consumers to create awareness of the exciting benefits of this emerging technology.” —R.M.
