Digital shelf edge displays serve many purposes, such as featuring pricing, information, video ads, coupons, branding and promotions for various product lines. With an ultra-slim bezel and the ability to display dynamic video content, this technology can be synced with in-store digital signage and helps to enhance the customer experience, increase efficiency, streamline operations and drive sales.
In this blog, we discuss the key benefits of shelf edge digital displays and outline the main reasons why retailers and grocers should consider this digital transition.
