"In a recent interview with Forbes magazine, CEO Ron Johnson, a former Apple retail store executive, said the company will be 100% RFID enabled across all products by early 2013.
Johnson said that "we're also doing something that no retailer has done completely... we are going 100 percent RFID with ticketing this fall." He added that "So February 1st next year, the entire Penney's platform will be on RFID tickets."
That seems to mean that all items carried by JC Penney will need to be RFID tagged by this Fall, and that they will move to RFID processing in store by early next year."
If JR got his hand in this mix AT ALL, we will notice it very quickly with August and September Revenues. Definitely not expecting that JC Pennys chose KMAG when there are several larger competitors, but I guess the Revenues will do the talking either way.
