ROI
On Jan. 31, Sam’s Club—owned and operated by Wal-Mart—began requiring all of its suppliers to apply EPC (Electronic Product Code) Gen 2 RFID tags to every full, single-item pallet of goods destined for its distribution center in DeSoto, Texas, or directly to one of its stores served by that distribution center. Any supplier failing to comply was charged a service fee of $2.00 per untagged pallet starting on Feb. 1, and the fee will gradually increase until it caps out at $3.00 per pallet on Jan. 1, 2009. The fee covers Sam’s Club’s costs in having to tag the pallets itself.
