Nedap supports HEMA with RFID rollout
Nedap, a global leader in RFID solutions, will implement its iD Cloud RFID platform across more than 740 HEMA stores in the Netherlands, Belgium and France.
By becoming even more data-driven, HEMA will further strengthen its inventory management. According to a statement by Nedap, customers will be able to see exactly how many of their favorite items are still available in a store via the app or website. Store staff will also be able to track inventory faster and more accurately.
All HEMA stores in the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, France, Germany and Austria will be live with the RFID solution by mid-2026, making use of Nedap’s expertise in large-scale RFID implementations. This ensures that customers can always count on finding the right products at the right time.
Strategic collaboration with a future outlook
HEMA chose Nedap because of its proven expertise in large-scale RFID deployments across multiple countries. But this partnership goes beyond just inventory accuracy, Nedap says. "It is a long-term collaboration with room to expand into future use cases."
"This partnership is special: two Dutch companies with a rich history, innovative spirit and strong customer focus are joining forces," says Hilbert Dijkstra, General Manager iD Cloud at Nedap. "We are proud to support HEMA on their RFID journey and look forward to the results we will achieve together."
