Empowering IoT in retail through advanced connectivity solutions
How G+D supports retail digitalization
The retail industry is undergoing rapid change, driven by digitalization, shifting customer expectations, and the need for greater operational agility. Retailers are rethinking how they connect with customers, manage inventory, and integrate technologies across physical and digital touchpoints. IoT in retail is playing an increasingly important role in these processes.
G+D supports this transformation with secure, scalable IoT connectivity and data solutions that enhance supply chain visibility, enable real-time inventory management, and unlock new opportunities for customer engagement and business growth.

Addressing digitalization challenges of the retail industry
Retail is becoming more connected and data-driven
As physical and digital retail continue to merge, businesses are under pressure to meet growing consumer expectations while overcoming system fragmentation and operational inefficiencies. Today’s customers demand seamless, personalized experiences across every channel, requiring retailers to handle inventory, supply chains, and data management in real time.
IoT in retail is reshaping store operations
Retailers are rethinking how stores function by using technologies such as smart shelves and connected checkout systems to improve efficiency and respond flexibly to demand.
Digital signage and in-store IoT applications help streamline day-to-day operations by automating processes and improving responsiveness. At the same time, they enhance the in-store experience by enabling more relevant customer interactions, reducing wait times, and ensuring better product availability. Underpinning all of this is secure IoT connectivity, which ensures these technologies can be integrated and scaled reliably across store networks.
Sustainability and system integration add pressure
Retailers face increasing pressure to operate more sustainably. Their efforts usually include cutting waste, improving energy efficiency and gaining better visibility into their supply chains. Yet many still rely on outdated infrastructure, making it difficult to implement new digital tools without disruption.
To overcome these challenges, more retailers are adopting intelligent and secure technologies that not only modernize operations but also provide the insights needed to adapt and grow. As the industry continues to evolve, these innovations are becoming essential to long-term competitiveness.
Enabling real-time retail visibility with smart label technology
As retail operations grow more complex, gaining real-time insight into product movement, stock levels, and supply chain status is critical. G+D’s smart label technology turns packaging into connected assets, enabling retailers to track goods from warehouse to shelf with precision.
These labels combine IoT connectivity, sensors, and integrated SIM technology to deliver continuous data on location, temperature, and handling conditions. The result: optimized inventory management, fewer stock disruptions, and greater transparency across the entire retail ecosystem.
