UK retailer Marks & Spencer is expanding their RFID trial from nine to 53 stores in the next year and will also attempt to test RFID on products with a wide variety of sizes, such as bras. According to PC World:

BT Group will be the main contractor on the second phase of the trial, providing M&S with IT services like deployment assistance and maintenance of the RFID readers. BT is also assisting with the implementation of RFID in M&S' food supply chain. M&S has contracted with Intellident for the scanner technology, while the microchips are from EM Microelectronic-Marin.
