Market Overview:
The global electronic shelf label market size reached US$ 876 Million in 2022. Looking forward, IMARC Group expects the market to reach US$ 2,354 Million by 2028, exhibiting a growth rate (CAGR) of 18% during 2023-2028. The growing awareness about the advantages associated with ESL systems, the rising adoption of the Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, and the launch of technologically advanced product variants represent some of the key factors driving the market.
Electronic shelf label (ESL) systems are devices used to display specific product information and price on the shelves. They help retailers interact with customers and electronically update the product information, ensuring accurate product pricing and establishing a direct connection between the store checkout system and product shelves. Compared to the traditional shelf label system that requires printing paper tags and changing them manually, ESL systems are more convenient, faster, and involve less hassle. They also offer durability, prolonged shelf life, and replaceable batteries and can be updated from time to time easily. They assist in improving the accuracy and smooth functioning of retail businesses by eliminating pricing errors. They are widely available in numerous sizes, colors, fonts, templates, and fastening solutions to meet the requirements of end users. As a result, ESL systems are extensively deployed by retail stores of all sizes, including supermarkets, hypermarkets, specialty stores, and department stores.

Electronic Shelf Label (ESL) Market Trends:
At present, the retail industry is witnessing a technological revolution in both developed and developing nations across the globe. Brick-and-mortar stores are becoming digitalized to distinguish themselves from online retail platforms, resulting in the widespread adoption of Internet of Things (IoT) solutions in the retail sector. This, coupled with the rising utilization of retail automation solutions, such as smart shelves and ESL systems, in stores to automate inventory management and optimize the overall workflow, represents the primary factor driving the market growth. Additionally, the growing awareness about the advantages associated with ESL systems, such as improved consumer satisfaction, automatic price updates, reduced operational and labor costs, and efficient store management, is fueling their demand further. Besides this, the large-scale integration of full graphic e-papers with ESL systems is positively influencing the development of in-store communication solutions. Furthermore, the leading players are incorporating novel technologies, including Wi-Fi, Near Field Communication (NFC), radio frequency (RF), and Bluetooth Low Energy (BLE), with ESL systems to enhance their overall functioning. In line with this, the introduction of advanced ESLs embedded with LED light indicators that provide low power consumption, high brightness, and better resolution is contributing to the market growth. Other factors, including the rapid expansion in the retail industry, increasing focus on improving customer service, elevating levels of digitization across numerous sectors, and continual technological advancements, are also anticipated to provide a positive thrust to the market growth.
