RangeGate will exhibit its Mobile-Edge solutions set at the Efficient Consumer Response (ECR) Conference on 4 and 5 October at the Sandton Convention Centre.
The conference is the biggest event in the South African fast-moving consumer goods industry. It showcases local and international best practice case studies across the spectrum of supply, demand and enabling technologies.
RangeGate`s Mobile-Edge solutions set comprises Warehouse-Edge, Logistics-Edge, Sales-Edge and Service-Edge, all of which are especially suited to the supply chain and service operations.
Mark Lilje, MD of RangeGate, says: "By deploying our solutions, mobile technology users in the above sectors can gain complete warehouse control, electronic proof of delivery, sales force automation and field service enablement."
RangeGate will demonstrate to conference attendees how wireless technology can immediately improve the bottom line within the supply chain.
The conference will consist of breakaway streams on both days, highlighting "Demand", "Supply", "Crime Prevention" and "Technology".
Other topics to be covered will include consumer research updates and marketing trends, several of which will be delivered by international speakers.
The conference is hosted by the ECR Association, which forms part of the Consumer Goods Council of South Africa. This body incorporates a number of companies dealing with best practice, standards and legal and regulatory issues in the consumer goods industry.
ECR promotes co-operation between retailers, wholesalers, manufacturers, service providers and logistics providers, in order to meet consumer needs better, faster and at least cost.
