published: cw 12, 2005 in Supply Chain Technology & RFIDWal-Mart Stores will roll out its RFID program to 600 stores and 12 distribution centers by December 2005, its Chief Information Officer Linda Dillman said at the RFID World conference and exhibition earlier this month. The RFID program requires suppliers to mark their pallets and cases with radio frequency identification (RFIDS) tags. The program will grow from 100 to 200 suppliers by years end, Dillman added. When she spoke on March 2, Dillman said that the giant retailer had received 23,753 tagged pallets at its three Texas distribution centers, which are pioneering its deployment of RFID.
