Wal-Mart Stores on Sept. 12 said it plans to bring another 500 stores online with its RFID (radio-frequency identification) initiative by the end of January 2007.
That will bring the total number of its retail locations using RFID to more than 1,000, though that represents about one-fourth of Wal-Mart's more than 3,900 locations in the United States.
A recent internal analysis of Wal-Mart's RFID efforts "reinforces the value of this technology for Wal-Mart, our suppliers and ultimately our customers," Rollin Ford, executive vice president and CIO, said in a statement.
"We're aggressively moving forward with the expansion of RFID-enabled facilities."
