Inconsistent and inefficient store fulfillment
Back-of-store operations are critical for omnichannel success, yet they often depend on inconsistent labeling processes and bulky equipment. Retailers struggle with space constraints, a lack of dedicated IT support, and the challenge of deploying solutions rapidly across a wide network of stores. This disjointed approach creates significant operational friction, slowing down fulfillment.
These inefficiencies lead to higher operational costs, potential for lost revenue, and frustrating delays in getting products to customers or back to distribution centers. Without a standardized, easy-to-deploy system, stores cannot function as effective fulfillment nodes, undermining the entire omnichannel strategy and diminishing the customer experience.

How the solution works
Initiate and process tasks on a rugged enterprise tablet
An associate begins by managing a shipping, transfer, or return task on the ET401 tablet. Purpose-built for retail, its compact, integrated design within the unit ensures it is always powered and ready for use. Associates can quickly access order information and initiate label printing directly from the durable, enterprise-grade interface.
Generate high-quality labels instantly
Once the task is confirmed on the tablet, the ZD621 thermal transfer printer immediately produces a high-quality, durable label. The ZD621 is designed to generate shipping, return-to-DC, and transfer labels quickly and consistently without complex setup, ensuring every package is correctly and professionally labeled, which standardizes operations and accelerates processing times for all outbound and inbound store logistics.
A simplified path to omnichannel excellence
Investing in Zebra’s solution provides a strategic advantage, transforming your stores into efficient fulfillment hubs. This enhances your ability to meet customer promises while lowering operational costs and simplifying processes for your frontline workers.
