AFS Technologies Expands Sales Force Automation Product Line PHOENIX – March 28, 2007 – AFS Technologies, Inc., (“AFS”), the leading provider of fully integrated software solutions to the food and beverage industry today announced the immediate availability of two new mobile products for Distribution Sales Representatives (DSRs) and their managers, offering improved functionality on a state-of-the art Microsoft .NET technology platform. The products are successors to the fully featured Raven laptop application used for years by thousands of DSRs daily as a consultative sales tool to increase gross profit and account and line item penetration at foodservice operators nationwide. “Exactly how our customers price, sell and account for inventory are different and we determined that two similar but different laptop products were needed to meet their needs,” said Kurien Jacob, Chief Executive Officer. “The Standard Edition product, like it’s predecessor Raven, calculates pricing directly on the laptop and is the tool of choice for many distributors. In contrast, the Enterprise Edition product uses pricing calculated on the ERP system, including deals and rebates, and is preferred by clients who want to ensure that the price sold the operator is the price reflected on their invoice. Now we’re able to offer both products on a leading technology platform that will be supported for years to come,” he added. Distributors requiring detailed product information and images of foodservice products or menu planning and recipe building tools to help operators manage food costs or wine industry specific functionality should consider licensing the Standard Edition. Distributors preferring ERP generated pricing or retail price maintenance capability should consider the Enterprise Edition. “Next our plan is to merge both products into a single version that will offer the best of both editions. We anticipate this product will become the undisputed industry leading sales tool of DSRs everywhere,” Jacob concluded. About AFS Technologies, Inc.
