RFID Journal: American Apparel has begun tagging individual garments to achieve item-level visibility within several of its nearly 280 stores, more than 175 of which are located in the United States. And it's now ready to expand and integrate RFID tagging across its rapidly expanding business.The company attaches Avery Dennison hangtags with integrated EPC Gen 2 inlays to all items bound for RFID-enabled retail locations. At such stores, the tags are read as a means of recording the receiving of those goods, tracking inventory within each store and identifying items purchased.
