Industry Trends:
Goods are better protected from fraud and shoplifting with tags. When tags move through an electronic article surveillance identification area at the entrance or exit of a store in an active state, they generate a warning. The majority of tag demand comes from apparel and fashion accessories stores, thus, as the number of consumers grows, so does the number of retail outlets, which, in turn, is expected to fuel the growth of the overall electronic article surveillance industry. The electronic article surveillance market in the Asia Pacific is expected to expand at the fastest pace. Electronic article surveillance systems are expected to be in high demand in the clothing and fashion accessories, supermarkets, and mass merchandise segments as the number of retail stores grows across the region.
