What Do Jewelry Stores and Hotels Have in Common? They're Losing Money Without This RFID Tech

In most businesses, inventory loss is a silent killer — you don’t always see it happening, but you definitely feel it in the bottom line.


But when it comes to jewelry stores and hotels, the stakes are even higher. One deals in high-value items the size of a thumbnail. The other handles thousands of linen items that disappear faster than they can be tracked.


And the truth is, both industries are losing money — daily — just because they don’t have the right tracking system in place.


That’s where RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) comes in.And more specifically, that’s where Tagway comes in.


Let me show you how.


💎 For Jewelry Stores: You Can’t Protect What You Can’t Track


Jewelry inventory management is tricky. You’re dealing with small, expensive items that get moved constantly — from the vault to the display to the customer’s hand — and often across multiple locations.


The risks?

  • Manual stock counts that take hours (and are often wrong)

  • Lost or misplaced pieces with no way to trace them

  • Limited visibility into where items actually are

  • Employee errors or, worse, internal shrinkage

  • No real-time data for sales, transfers, or audits


Sound familiar?


Now imagine this instead:

  • You wave a handheld scanner over a tray and instantly scan 100+ pieces — no line of sight needed.

  • Inventory is updated in real-time across your POS or ERP.

  • Every item has an invisible tag that logs who handled it, where it went, and when.

  • Your next audit takes 10 minutes instead of 4 hours.


This isn’t futuristic tech. It’s Tagway RFID in action — already used by luxury retailers across the globe.

“Since installing Tagway’s RFID system, we’ve reduced inventory errors by 90% and audits are now effortless. We didn’t realize how much time (and money) we were wasting.”— Jewelry Chain Owner, Middle East

🛏️ For Hotels and Laundries: Your Linens Are Walking Away


Let’s switch scenes to a 5-star hotel or a hospital with 1,000+ beds.You have towels, bedsheets, robes, uniforms, and linens constantly moving between guest rooms, laundry areas, and storage.


How are you tracking them?


If the answer is “with manual logs” or “we kind of guess,” then you're already losing money.


Here’s what’s really happening:

  • Linens are getting lost in laundry cycles

  • Towels are going home with guests

  • Replacements are over-ordered “just in case”

  • Cleanliness and usage cycles aren’t tracked

  • No one knows which department used what — or when

Tagway solves all of that with washable, embedded RFID tags in every linen item.


You get:

  • Automated tracking from room to laundry and back

  • Data on how many washes each item has undergone

  • Alerts when items need replacement

  • Clear visibility into where losses happen

  • Accountability across departments or locations

“RFID helped us reduce linen loss by nearly 40%. The system paid for itself in under a year.”— Director of Operations, Luxury Hotel Group

🧠 The Bigger Picture: Why RFID Is No Longer Optional


We live in a time where real-time tracking isn’t a luxury — it’s a necessity. And yet, many jewelry retailers and hotel groups are still relying on outdated, manual systems to manage millions of dollars’ worth of assets.


That’s like using a flip phone to run a modern business.

RFID, when done right, removes:

  • Guesswork

  • Inventory chaos

  • Revenue leaks

  • Operational blind spots


It replaces them with:

  • Speed

  • Accuracy

  • Accountability

  • Profit protection


And Tagway is here to make it simple, scalable, and cost-effective.
