How Converters Can Make RFID Labels

Mandated suppliers of consumer goods to the major Western supermarkets must buy and fit the tags regardless of economics. As with anti-theft tags, they typically get nothing approaching a satisfactory payback so they buy the crudest, cheapest RFID tags they can get away with. Contrast the U.S. Military and many Eastern retailers where they are prepared to pay for quality and functionality and seek mutuality of benefit and enduring supplier-retailer relationships based on economics. The same can be said for that Dutch bookstore tagging its own books, for now at least.
