Abstract

This chapter presents a combined use of radio frequency identification (RFID) technology and a product cross-selling system to perform cross-selling and up-selling for the retail industry. A smart dressing system (SDS) enabled by RFID technologies and an intelligent product cross-selling system (IPCS) have been developed. Customers' in-store data can be collected using RFID-enabled SDS and used for promoting or cross-selling new products. The IPCS, integrating a rule-based expert system and a fuzzy screening technique, can process linguistic and categorical information to simulate fashion designers and recommend appropriate fashion product items for cross-selling. The proposed systems execute the selling strategies more effectively, which improves sales performance in the fashion retail industry.
