Yong Fengyu said that with the participation of the R&D department and the paper machine division, in addition to providing carton packaging services, it will also cooperate with the ITRI to conduct more extensive product development. In order to further grasp the packaging and barcode revolutionary trend and the packaging and carton business opportunities of Weiming Department Stores Asia-Pacific suppliers, Yongfeng Yu has also mobilized all business units and affiliated companies of the Group to fully support the development of related technologies, and has achieved three meters. Internal reading is correct.
The company is quite optimistic about RFID's vision. After RFID products are put on the market, from the production line to the hands of consumers, the company's headquarters will be able to pass the import and export process of each product, including logistics time, automatic warehousing and market research. This technology is in control.
Zhong Hongzhi said that because the bar code code will be used up within two years, plus the global retail leader, its top 100 suppliers will use RFID developed by MIT from January 1, 2005. Yongfeng Yu will use RFID as the first choice in the packaging of Weiming Asian products.
Zhong Hongzhi believes that as soon as the middle of next year, RFID technology is expected to be published globally, Yongfeng Yu set production time in the second half of next year, and in the initial application, it will focus on packaging of high-priced products and coexist with barcodes. Once it is popularized, it can completely replace the bar code.
Zhong Hongzhi pointed out that many international big companies are manufacturing on the mainland to supply fame. The annual purchase volume of products in the mainland is about US$10 billion. Packaging accounts for about 3%, that is, at least US$300 million in market demand. Currently, Yongfengyu has nine factories on the mainland, and can reach 20 factories in two years. By then, it can fully support the production of RFID. If it is successful, after three years, the revenue of the mainland plant will reach NT$1.2 billion. RFID accounts for about 30% to 50%.
It is understood that Weiming’s promotion of the full use of RFID is mainly based on the consideration that the current RFID has a dollar and the cost is too high. He hopes to reduce the cost to 0.1 yuan per piece or even below 0.05 US dollars with a large number of applications. By then, the RFID era is approaching.
