WhereNet’s Technology Innovation and Outstanding Customer Service
SANTA CLARA, Calif.—July 23, 2007—WhereNet Corp., a Zebra Technologies company (NASDAQ: ZBRA) and the leader in wireless solutions for tracking and managing enterprise assets, announced today that Global Logistics & Supply Chain Strategies magazine has named WhereNet as one of its 100 Great Supply Chain Partners, marking the third straight year the company has received this honor. In addition, Supply & Demand Chain Executive magazine named WhereNet a Top 100 company for the fourth year in a row. Zebra Technologies, WhereNet’s parent company, was also recognized as a Top 100 Company in the June/July issue of the magazine.
Global Logistics & Supply Chain Strategies selected WhereNet as one of the Top 100 Great Supply Chain Partners based on feedback citing WhereNet’s technology innovation and outstanding customer service from customers including APL and NYK Logistics. Featured in this month’s issue, the Top 100 list is the result of a six-month poll of the magazine’s readers in which logistics and supply chain professionals nominated vendors whose technology, logistics, transportation, or consulting solutions have made a significant impact on their company’s efficiency, customer service, and overall supply chain performance.
After sorting through more than 1,800 qualified responses nominating more than 350 different companies, the magazine chose 100 companies that “deserve to be singled out and to be held up as examples for others in the industry.” In the case of WhereNet, one of its customer nominations included the following endorsement: “They add value to information that saves us time and money.”
“We continue to grow our company by providing proven solutions, domain expertise, and unparalleled customer service to address our customers’ unique business challenges,” said Matt Armanino, executive vice president of worldwide field operations for WhereNet. “It’s rewarding to hear our customers’ earnest endorsement of WhereNet and to be recognized with industry awards year after year, especially those that are 100 percent end-user driven.”
The June/July issue of Supply & Demand Chain Executive salutes leading providers of supply chain services and technologies that are bringing a new competitive advantage to the global supply chain. According to the magazine, “Gulf States Toyota relies on WhereNet’s active-RFID tracking system to locate and process more than 190,000 cars annually at its 84-acre processing center in Houston. Results: Reduced labor cost for vehicle processing, and better yard throughput and responsiveness to dealer and customer demand enabled by reduced on-site dwell time.”
