Next, one of the largest high-street fashion outlets, were looking for an automated labeling solution for dual pricing its product coding labels. Labels are currently not dual priced therefore garments in Irish stores, for example, have to be re-priced to also include the cost in Euros .

Having seen the Toshiba B-SP2 2 inch portable printer and specialist labels demonstrated at the Retail Solutions Show the printer was selected by Next as the most appropriate solution to meet their labeling needs.

The Toshiba printer is compact and simple to use which means that any staff member can carry out re-labeling with ease. The B-SP2 also offers the additional benefit of being able to link directly into Next's existing and reliable hand-held products. The Toshiba solution has enabled the high-street fashion outlet to reduce the time taken to price merchandise in store.

'Future proofing' is an important consideration when introducing any new technology. The Toshiba B-SP2 is available as Bluetooth or WIFI with Cisco compatibility, ensuring customers of a product range that can meet future technology requirements.

The Retail Solutions show is renowned for show-casing the latest technology and innovations for the retail sector, attracting key purchasers from all the major high-street chains, it is the perfect venue to see pioneering products from quality manufacturers, like Toshiba, all in one location.
