Rosh Ha'ayin, July 06, 2011. Wizcom Technologies Ltd. (Prime Standard: WZM,
IL 0010830706) today announces the launch of its multilingual online store. The
website can now be accessed in English, Spanish, French, German, Chinese,
Japanese, Russian and Arabic.
Shimon Amouyal, CEO for Wizcom, stated, "This is an important step for us. By
providing access to our website and online store in people's local language, it
will be easier to attract customers who are looking for tools to assist them in
working with other languages. In this way we will meet their need to read about
and assess these tools in their own language.
"By providing potential customers with direct access to Wizcom's pricing, they
will better be able to make comparisons with offers they may encounter locally.
In this, the Wizcom online store also provides an alternative to other outlets.
We anticipate that this step will cause a lowering of the barrier to access our
tools and subsequently will drive direct sales."
"With our web presence in the local language, we also look to increase people's
awareness of Wizcom's products. Although important in general, this holds
especially true in important market segments such as learning disabilities, such
as dyslexia, where our products provide great added value to assist people in
accessing information despite their reading difficulties, in whatever language.
We believe we are the world leader in this field and now we have the means to
address potential customers in this market directly across large parts of the
globe."
"We have started online distribution via our own website back in Q1 2009 and
have seen a very positive development since then. Today our own e-commerce
channel accounts for 5% of total revenues. We expect that the multilingual
access will give direct sales a further boost, which will contribute to our
improving margin development."
Wizcom Technologies Ltd. is the world's leading producer of personal, portable
scanning pens that help people read and process text. These pocket-sized, user-
friendly devices enable people to understand and use printed material, anytime
and anywhere, without disrupting their reading process. Our pens help students
of English as a first or second language, as well as people working in
multilingual environments, enhancing their fluency and expediting reading
comprehension.
