In this issue of Industry Update, we are pleased to congratulate Checkpoint Systems on being named recipients of our Commitment to Excellence Award.
Receiving the Commitment to Excellence Award is a proud and meaningful milestone for Checkpoint Systems. It recognises the dedication, professionalism and collaborative spirit that the team demonstrates every day, reinforcing the company’s commitment to delivering the highest standards across all aspects of its work. As Jenny Parisi, Sales and Marketing Director UK, explains, “This award is not just a reflection of recent achievements, but of the journey we have been on as a company-focused on continuous improvement, innovation and putting our customers and partners at the centre of our work.”
With a long and well-established history, Checkpoint Systems has consistently placed innovation and operational excellence at the heart of its business. Serving retail, grocery, and logistics sectors, the company has built its reputation on cutting-edge RFID and loss-prevention solutions that optimise operations, enhance security, and deliver unprecedented visibility across the supply chain. This commitment to high-quality, reliable technology continues to shape the company’s evolution, enabling it to respond to an increasingly complex and fast-moving retail landscape.
Central to this approach is a deep commitment to customer partnership. Checkpoint works closely with clients to develop bespoke, data-driven solutions tailored to their unique operational needs. Recognising that loss prevention and inventory management vary widely between businesses, the company’s source-to-shop philosophy ensures solutions are both effective and fully aligned with operational realities.
Operating on a global scale, with over 5,000 employees across 35 countries and an extended network supporting more than 55 additional markets, Checkpoint combines local expertise with global consistency. Dedicated regional teams collaborate with central leadership to ensure innovation, reliability, and service excellence are delivered worldwide. As retailers face rising theft, margin pressure, and operational complexity, Checkpoint continues to help customers protect assets, unlock actionable data, and operate with confidence.
RFID remains at the forefront of the industry, and Checkpoint is leading its development and application.
With full in-house capabilities spanning software, labels, and hardware, the company supports customers in maximising the potential of RFID technology. Its market-leading ItemOptix platform provides complete inventory visibility and control across stores, distribution centres, and the wider supply chain, offering features from loss prevention and asset tracking to shipment validation and merchandise display management.
On the hardware side, Checkpoint’s SFERO™ RFID-enabled EAS solutions combine advanced product protection with real-time inventory control. The recent SFERO RFID Checkout represents a milestone innovation – the first RFID EAS antenna fully integrated into the checkout lane – providing discreet, high-performance protection without disrupting the customer experience. Beyond the store, RFID tunnels and tables give distribution centres enhanced asset visibility, while an expanding portfolio of RFID labels and Alpha hard tags delivers robust protection across multiple sectors, from retail and grocery to health & beauty, DIY, and technology.
Checkpoint is seeing a clear shift in customer priorities toward technology that delivers measurable business impact. Across sectors, organisations want solutions that not only protect assets, but actively drive sales, profitability, and customer insight. Retail and grocery continue to generate the greatest demand, while logistics and warehousing have increasingly adopted RFID to streamline operations and gain control over large-scale inventories.
What sets Checkpoint apart is its end-to-end ownership of the solution lifecycle. Products are designed, developed, and manufactured entirely in-house, enabling rigorous quality control and consistent performance. Complementing this, a global team of R&D, software, field service, and sales specialists ensures every solution is installed with precision and supported throughout the customer journey. High standards are maintained from initial consultation through installation and long-term post-sale support, giving customers confidence in both product reliability and service quality.
The tangible benefits of working with Checkpoint are clear: improved asset visibility, reduced shrink, simplified logistics, and greater operational confidence. With retail theft at record levels and supply chains under pressure, RFID-enabled EAS solutions provide both real-time protection and end-to-end traceability. Businesses can monitor products from source to shop, address grey-market issues, and harmonise processes, all while gaining actionable insights that drive growth.
Excellence is embedded across Checkpoint’s culture, defining how the company operates internally and externally. Every team member, from marketing and sales to installation and support, is committed to the highest standards, underpinned by strong communication, collaboration, and a shared drive to innovate. This ethos ensures that customers not only receive reliable, high-quality solutions but also benefit from a consistently exceptional experience at every stage of engagement.
Looking ahead, Checkpoint’s priorities focus on enabling customers to achieve even greater efficiency and insight. The company will continue to maintain and enhance EAS systems while expanding RFID capabilities to deliver deeper understanding of purchasing behaviour, optimise inventory, and drive sales. In the logistics sector, continued investment in distribution centre RFID solutions will streamline processes, improve asset control, and provide complete visibility over the warehouse-to-store product journey.
By combining innovation, operational excellence, and a customer-centric approach, Checkpoint Systems reinforces its role as a trusted partner in the retail ecosystem. Its commitment to quality, reliability, and continuous improvement ensures that businesses can confidently protect assets, optimise operations, and focus on growth.
