Alfred Stern Jakob GmbH & Co.KG/ Scout
Business Situation
- The school bags are manufactured in Far East by SCOUT and get marketed worldwide
- Product counterfeiting has become a growing problem in recent years - it is difficult to identify copies
- The processes along the global supply chain pose significant potentials of improvement, it is a challenge to identify weaknesses
Solution Approach
- Each school bag is equipped with an RFID tag
- 12 packaging solution modules have been installed at two sites in Germany by our partner AEB
Deployed solution modules
- Teach In
- Packing
Results
- The school bags are registered during the commissioning process, therefore the individual target of each bag within the supply chain can be registered in the system
- Based on the worldwide unique identification of each individual product misguided school bags and imitations are easily identified
- With this system, a proof of origin for each individual school bag is possible
- As a result of this project, the distribution channels are working reliably now
- Gray imports are prevented
