SAN
DIEGO, CA, September 24, 2000 - E-Commerce Logistics
(ecL),
Asia Pacific's leading edge e-fulfillment solutions
company today announced the launch of the ecL Online
Shopping Guide. This unique catalog, which targets
affluent shoppers in Greater China, will focus on
promoting major U.S. e-retailers during the new millennium's
premiere holiday shopping season.
Online
and multi-channel retailers will have an opportunity
to promote their web site and qualify for a free page
in this special catalog by visiting the ecL booth
(#109-111) at NFR.com 2000, San Diego Convention Center,
September 24-26, 2000.
"With
ecL's state-of-the-art warehouse and fulfillment infrastructure,
we can ensure that e-retailers capture new business
opportunities around Greater China in a cost-efficient
and timely manner," said Simon Hsu, ecL founder and
chief executive officer. "Proximity to the customers
and expertise in end-to-end fulfillment and logistics
management enables ecL to offer this program as a
value-added bonus to U.S. e-retailers looking to expand
their product offerings to Asia Pacific."
As
demands for innovative U.S. merchandise in the Greater
China region grow, this catalog will serve two key
purposes. First to introduce the hottest U.S. retail
sites on the Internet and second, to capture and retain
customers in a region known for its high consumer
spending. The Millennium Edition of the ecL Online
Shopping Guide will be a 3-month, multi-holiday promotional
campaign covering Christmas, Chinese New Year and
St. Valentine's Day 2001. Over 100,000 copies of the
80-page full-color catalog will be distributed by
direct mail in Hong Kong, Taiwan and Shanghai to a
list of targeted consumers in the above-average income
category.
Since
the company launched in Q1 2000, ecL has provided
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 distribution to key markets

ecL's
warehousing/fulfillment facility in
Hong Kong offers over 1.2 million cu.ft. of storage
space and is equipped with a highly secure 24-hour
computerized management system for synchronized transactions.
IT support at ecL is handled through
a sophisticated Information Management System with
real-time data interfaces, data exchange services,
data mining and shipment tracking. Pre- and post-sale
customer care is provided in multiple languages at
ecL's customer care center
operation, along with integrated voice and data communications.
Through creative utilization of resources, ecL also
supports product promotions
for customers through cooperative advertising, hotlinks
to relevant promotional sites and partnership marketing
programs.
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 to compete in the race for
online e-tail orders from Asia Pacific consumers.
