DC Velocity - January 2012

SDI Group remains committed to providing complete solutions to Retail, Wholesale and Direct to Consumer clients. We will continue to grow our global presence to ensure that we can support our clients with their global expansion.

Even through adverse economic conditions we have continued to deliver cost effective innovative solutions that have enabled our customers to lower the overall cost of distribution. This year we are proud to celebrate our 35th anniversary, through which time we have led distribution center design.

We have noticed that our industry niche, Retail, Wholesale and Direct to Consumer are trending towards faster response, increased flexibility and smaller order profiles. In short our clients are experiencing a convergence of order profiles between the different business streams which they service.

To enable SDI to maintain its position as an industry leader we are launching the following initiatives in 2012.

• Visualization Product allowing the user to obtain “ DashBoard “ metrics in any form which they desire.

• Controls systems that allow centralization of servers and computers away from
the shop floor
• New enhanced unit sortation system which enables highly flexible layout
configurations, increased capacity and greater accuracy.
