UNFI and 'Cornerstone for Natural' Launch 'Smart Shelf Tags'

By using "smart" shelf tags, distributor United Natural Foods Inc. (UNFI) hopes to assist its grocery store partners in improving customer experience by making their product information more easily accessible. Today, UNFI has teamed up with Cornerstone for Natural, a business management software company with headquarters in Tampa, Florida, to bring 'Smart Shelf Tags to all of UNFI's retailers.

Smart Shelf Tags feature 'ELi Codes,' which allow the tags to present pdfs, web content, full videos, and of course, written content about a product's specific information.

"Consumers have shown that they care about the values and beliefs of the brands they purchase, and with Smart Shelf Tags, suppliers can communicate directly with shoppers about their products and tell the stories behind their brands," said John Raiche, executive vice president of supplier services and merchandising at UNFI.
