Ngokwe-RFID Magazine, i-Walmart USA yazise abahlinzeki bayo ukuthi izodinga ukunwetshwa kwamathegi e-RFID abe yinani lezigaba zemikhiqizo emisha ezogunyazwa ukuthi kube namalebula ahlakaniphile anikwe amandla i-RFID ashumekwe kuwo kusukela ngoSepthemba walo nyaka. Itholakala ezitolo ze-Walmart. Kubikwa ukuthi izindawo ezintsha zokwandisa zihlanganisa: i-electronics yabathengi (njenge-TV, i-xbox), amadivaysi angenawaya (njengamaselula, amaphilisi, izesekeli), ikhishi kanye nezindawo zokudlela, umhlobiso wasekhaya, ubhavu kanye neshawa, isitoreji kanye nenhlangano, ibhethri yemoto eyisikhombisa uhlobo.

Kuyaqondakala ukuthi i-Walmart isivele isebenzise amathegi e-RFID kagesi ezicathulweni nasemikhiqizweni yezingubo, futhi ngemva kokwandisa ububanzi bokufaka isicelo kulo nyaka, ukusetshenziswa konyaka kwamathegi e-elektroniki e-RFID kuzofinyelela izinga lezigidigidi ezingu-10, okubaluleke kakhulu embonini.

Njengesuphamakethe ephumelela kakhulu emhlabeni ukusebenzisa ubuchwepheshe be-RFID, umsuka we-Wal-Mart ne-RFID ungalandelelwa emuva “Kumbukiso Wesistimu Yezimboni Zokudayisa” owawuse-Chicago, e-USA ngo-2003. Engqungqutheleni, i-Walmart yamemezela okokuqala ukuthi izosebenzisa ubuchwepheshe obubizwa ngokuthi i-RFID ukuze ekugcineni ingene esikhundleni sebhakhodi yenkampani esetshenziswa kabanzi manje, ibe ngokokuqala ngqa ukumemezela ubuchwepheshe.

Ngokuhamba kweminyaka, i-Wal-Mart isebenzise i-RFID emkhakheni wezicathulo nezingubo, okulethe isixhumanisi sokugcinwa kwempahla ekuphathweni kwempahla esikhathini solwazi, ukuze ukujikeleza kwemakethe nokuziphatha kwempahla ngayinye kulandelelwe. Ngesikhathi esifanayo, ulwazi lwedatha oluqoqwe ohlelweni lokuphathwa kwempahla lungabuye lutholakale ngesikhathi sangempela, okwenza kube lula ukucutshungulwa kwedatha, ukufaka idijithali kanye nokwazisa yonke inqubo yezokuthutha, ukuthuthukisa ukusebenza kahle kokuphathwa kwempahla, futhi kunciphisa izidingo zabasebenzi. Akukhona lokho kuphela, ubuchwepheshe be-RFID buphinde bunciphise ngempumelelo izindleko zabasebenzi zokuphathwa kwe-supply chain, okwenza ukugeleza kolwazi, ukuhlelwa kwempahla, nokugeleza kwezimali kuhlangane futhi kusebenze ngempumelelo, izinzuzo ezikhulayo. Ngokusekelwe empumelelweni emkhakheni wezicathulo nezingubo, i-Walmart inethemba lokwandisa iphrojekthi ye-RFID kweminye iminyango nezigaba esikhathini esizayo esiseduze, ngaleyo ndlela iqhubekele phambili.
