SAN JOSE, April 16, 2000 -- E-Commerce Logistics (ecL), Asia Pacific's leading edge e-fulfillment solutions company, will introduce its full suite of services to US e-merchants at the "e-retailing 2000 spring" exhibit, April 16-18, McEnery Convention Center in San Jose.

As online shopping in Asia Pacific grows at an accelerated pace, many US e-merchants fail to capitalize on opportunities due to obstacles in end-to-end logistics, order fulfillment processes and customer care. Recognizing the challenges for e-merchants channeling through this international transaction maze, ecL launched its Hong Kong-based operation earlier this year to provide the missing link: a turn-key transaction management infrastructure.

"ecL is here to meet the challenges of the new e-commerce age," said Simon Hsu, ecL founder and chief executive officer. "As online shopping expands in Asia Pacific, ecL will serve as the bridge which links US e-merchants to Asian consumers at a reasonable cost and within an acceptable timeframe. Our customized e-fulfillment solutions enables value-added individualized care in completing the life-cycle of each transaction."

ecL provides essential end-to-end fulfillment and logistical support to e-merchants and direct marketers through its dedicated state-of-the-art warehouse management system, synchronized order fulfillment and delivery to most Asia Pacific cities within 24-48 hours.

ecL's warehousing/fulfillment facility offers over 1.2 million cu. ft. of storage space and is equipped with a highly secure 24-hour computerized ELV management system for synchronized transactions. The IBM/AS400 Information Management System provides ecL with sophisticated IT support as it handles real-time data interfaces, data exchange services, data mining and shipment tracking. ecL also offers personalized pre- and post-sale customer care in multiple languages, integrating voice and data communications, through its call center operation. In addition, by creatively utilizing resources, ecL provides added value to clients' promotional campaigns through cooperative advertising and hotlinks to relevant sites as well as partnership marketing opportunities.

As Asia Pacific's solutions-based connection for international e-merchants, ecL is the next generation provider of comprehensive integrated solutions --a virtual extension for e-merchants looking for the winning edge in the race for online e-tail orders from Asia Pacific consumers.
