Why Garment Tagging? Tag along for a smooth Dry Cleaning Business


Say hello to Mr. Levine in the image above. Doesn’t he look annoyed and confused? When asked what’s wrong, he told us about how he spends hours daily manually tagging his loads of laundry. Even then there are times when tags go missing or are wrongly attached leading to utter chaos. But why bother tagging heaps of clothes?

Well, every dry cleaner and laundry business owner understands the importance of tagging. Tags are necessary for:
  • Identification of ownership
  • Reminder of service to be performed
  • Help in sorting garments according to priority of due dates

Well, if that’s how crucial tagging is, then what bothers Mr. Levine?

The plight of many dry cleaners and laundry business owners is the problem of manual tagging. Not only is this process time consuming (every item is picked, a slip is made, necessary information is written and then tagged), but this method is prone to human error as well. The worker might miss a cloth, miss to write vital information on the tag or even the tag itself can go missing. In such cases, the reliability is reduced which later leads to confusion, loss of clothes, wrong deliveries and customer dissatisfaction. The dry cleaner has to bear the brunt and pay compensations.

All in all, a little tag creates such nuisance and shakes up the brand value of your business.

Are you wondering if there’s a way out of it? Well, there definitely is.

Taking into consideration the perplexity of the dry cleaners and laundry business owners, QDC came up with a simplified and automated version of tagging. With a simple key press, the barcodes are automatically generated, and with a simple beep on the scanner, each and every tagged cloth is registered in the system. Now tag each cloth with this electronic tag which already has the vital information required for sorting it. The tags have information of Order number, Due Date and Service to be performed.

No Abracadabra, just technology simplifying your business!

Automated barcode tagging saves time and is safe from human error. Along with this, the QDC software enables garment tracking which in turn makes stock reconciliation easier and eliminates wrong deliveries.

With this said, barcode tagging will lead to:
  • Zero wrong deliveries
  • Zero compensations
  • Happy customers
  • Employee motivation
  • Enhanced customer experience
  • Improved branding


Wasn’t that all you wished to achieve? So, with automated barcode tagging, we have sorted Mr. Levine’s problem.

How automated tagging works:

Now, neither Mr. Levine nor you have to worry over tagging and keeping track of clothes. Just as the new customer walks in, enter their order and garment details only once in the QDC software which prints out the tags with the barcode. Attach the barcode tags with clothes which already have all necessary information and start the processing. Minimize your efforts but maximize your productivity and profits with QDC Software barcode tagging.
