On October 24, 2025, Walmart (NYSE: WMT) and Avery Dennison (NYSE: AVY) announced a partnership to deploy RFID‑enabled labels in fresh food categories—meat, bakery, and deli—an innovation that has not been used in these high‑moisture, cold environments before.
The collaboration introduces sensor technology that allows Walmart associates to track inventory in real time, reduce waste, and improve markdown decisions, directly supporting Walmart’s sustainability goal to cut global food loss and waste intensity by 50 % by 2030.
This first‑of‑its‑kind operational milestone enhances Walmart’s supply‑chain efficiency across its 11,000 stores, potentially improving margins and customer experience while reinforcing its technology‑driven omnichannel strategy.
