of RFID-based applications in supply chain, as well

Featured Showcases
The SCIC showcases the latest enabling technologies that
can be applied at any point of the supply chain with the
aim of achieving supply chain management excellence. It
demonstrates how Electronic Product Code-based RFID technology
can be applied in real-life business environments among
key supply chain stakeholders, including manufacturers,
logistics providers and retailers. One of the highlights
is an EPC/ RFID based globalized track and trace community
platform service - ezTRACK - which is designed to enable
real-time visibility of goods and information from the point
of origin to point of sale.
The Centre is primarily divided into 3 themed areas, namely
Manufacturing Zone, Logistics Zone and Retail Zone with
the latest EPC/RFID solutions for each stakeholder along
the supply chain.
In the coming October, a new face of SCIC under the theme
of "RFID Making Lives Better" will be introduced.
The expanded exhibits centering on Clothing, Dining, Commuting
and Living, will be characterized by the most up-to-date
RFID applications designed with originality and innovation
leading to a better quality of life.

SCIC Address:
Unit 106-107, 1/F, East Wing, Phase 2,
No. 8 Science Park West Avenue,
Hong Kong Science Park,
