Case Study: Kesko achieves reliable, cost-effective consignment label printing with Zebra

Kesko, trading in the car, grocery, building and technical sectors, Reduces Costs and Boosts Efficiency with the Introduction of an Enterprise Grade Print Solution from Zebra

Kesko, a leading Nordic retail and building-supplies group, needed to improve consignment label printing at its Örebro warehouse. A mixed fleet of printers that relied on USB transfers created inconsistent label quality, poor visibility into device status, supply management complexity and the risk of delays and higher operating costs.

Working with Pro ID, Kesko standardised on Zebra ZQ630 mobile printers and Zebra Print DNA to enable Wi‑Fi printing, remote monitoring, enhanced security and smarter battery management. The unified solution delivered fast, accurate and reliable label printing, reduced printer downtime and supply SKUs, improved operator experience, and lower operating costs (including an estimated 20–30% battery saving) through proactive maintenance and simplified device management.
