Size info on electronic shelf labels (ESL)
With electronic shelf labels (ESL), stores can clearly display sizes, stock quantity and expected delivery – directly on the product. This puts customers at ease, increases staff efficiency and improves the overall shopping experience.
How you can apply size info to ESL:
- Show which sizes are in stock in the store (e.g. “Size 40, 41, 43 in stock”)
- Mark which sizes are temporarily out of stock
- Visualize when specific sizes are expected back in stock (“Expected in stock 15/8”)
- Inform about sizes that are in the back room, even if they are not in the store
- Offer the option to order desired size online directly via QR code
- Highlight size guides so customers choose right the first time
By presenting size and stock info directly on the shelf edge, uncertainty is minimized and conversion rates are significantly increased.
Benefits of showing size and stock info on ESL:
- Reduces questions to staff about stock status and sizes
- Increases customer confidence and willingness to buy
- Makes it easier to handle out-of-stock items professionally (“Expected back in stock”)
- Improves logistics between store, backroom and remote warehouse
- Support omnichannel strategies with real-time inventory data
- Create a modern and efficient in-store experience
Size info on ESL makes it easier for customers to find the right item quickly, while creating better flow and fewer lost sales opportunities in the store.
