Brother UK sets sights on strong auto-id and labelling sales growth
BROTHER UK is expecting to double sales of its professional label printers over the next 12 months, on the back of significant investment to strengthen its proposition and growing market demand.
Over the last year, Brother UK has partnered with major Auto-ID resellers and vendors in the UK, as well as specialist partners BarcodeGenie and Planglow, to create new routes to market and develop tailored solutions for the retail and food hygiene markets respectively. The technology provider has also upgraded two of its most popular label printing lines – the TD-2000 and the QL – to improve connectivity and security, introduce an auto-sleep mode as default to reduce operators’ energy use, and boost manufacturing capacity to service higher demand.
The business says that an increasing demand for thermal labelling devices across retail, supply chain and hospitality will also help to drive the growth as more firms look to digitise and unlock new operational efficiencies. Forecasts from market research consultancy
VDC reveal that the UK market for thermal labelling devices is set to grow by 44% to $137.9m by 2026, compared to 2021.
