ATLANTA, December 5, 2024 – GreyOrange Inc., a leader in AI-driven fulfillment automation, announced today that the company is a Sample Vendor in Gartner® Hype Cycle for Retail Technologies 2024, authored by analyst Sandeep Unni. GreyOrange sees its recognition in Gartner’s “Item-Level RFID in the Store” research as confirmation of the company’s innovative progress. Its gStore solution, a B2B SaaS inventory management and store execution platform, delivers 98% inventory accuracy and location precision within three to five feet.

According to the Gartner report, “Item-level RFID impacts retailer operations by:

• Improving item-level inventory accuracy significantly, typically beyond 98%.

• Boosting loyalty and retention through increased customer engagement through in-store interactions such as check-out.”

Designed to enhance store execution through real-time inventory management and intelligent tasking, gStore is implemented in over 250 overhead RFID-enabled stores globally, which is a global first. gStore is a retail store platform that not only streamlines in-store operations and omnichannel execution but also provides visibility across all inventory nodes, enhancing the in-store experience for customers and store associates.

“gStore offers customizable capabilities for a mix of both overhead and handheld RFID devices in real-time,” said Troy Siwek, gStore General Manager, GreyOrange. “The platform enables store associates with planogram-based inventory management, pin-pointing each item’s location, and automatically generating tasks to streamline receiving and replenishment processes.”

The Gartner® Hype Cycle for Retail Technologies 2024 reports, item-level RFID solutions enhance retail operations by improving inventory accuracy, streamlining cycle counts, and facilitating efficient fulfillment of online orders. The solutions also enable quicker replenishment and strengthen fraud prevention, leading to increased customer engagement.
