RFID in Japan

Japanese retailer ECO'S is providing traceability information about eggs at their store in the Japanese city of Kuki. An expiration date and a 3-letter code are directly printed on an egg shell, which are used by consumers to access relevant information (information about farms, feedstuff, and results of bacteriological examinations) on the terailer's website.
