According to the 2024 Hype Cycle for Retail Technologies report, “Smart shelves can provide critical real-time visibility to in-store, on-shelf availability; increase operational efficiency; guide customers and associates to discover products; and contribute inputs to Internet of Things (IoT)-based real-time store monitoring capabilities. Data from smart shelves can equip retailers to replicate a richer in-store experience, generating revenue uplift and delivering significant efficiency gains of store operations.”

Hanshow’s smart shelf technology and ESLs are positioned as high benefit innovations that are set to mature and gain widespread adoption within the next five to ten years.
