Thank Sam Walton and Big Brother for some, albeit limited, spending.
Wal-Mart’s suppliers will spend sleepless nights and many dollars to comply with Wal-Mart’s radio frequency identification (RFID) push. So, Nucleus asks, is Wal-Mart the new redneck Microsoft?

Walmart

What Walmart are doing is no different to other technology implementations - I remember the introduction of EDI, ECR etc. They are looking after their business, and the cost reductions will help the whole supply chain, so long as suppliers, and Walmart, use the opportunity to simplify.

Walmart

Walmart needs to sit down, take a deep breath and consider the perceptions that it's giving vendors, and customers, concerning it's ability to get along with others in their communities.
Redneck tactics indeed.
