XeBusiness signs up Malaysian IT Re-seller Partner


Manchester, UK 18th November 2002

XeBusiness, the Manchester based specialist applications software vendor to apparel, accessories and household textile suppliers, announces that it has set up a re-seller arrangement in Malaysia with leading local IT Company, Alphamatic Systems.

Textile manufacture and export is strategic to the Malaysian economy. To combat the competitive threat from other regions, most notably China, best practice issues like productivity, cost reduction, quality and added value generation through improved customer service are receiving increasing attention, with Information Technology systems increasingly recognised as being the prime business enabler.

Alphamatic Systems will market and support the XeBusiness world class manufacturing and distribution system (Xe-ERP) in Malaysia, focusing on the large number of garment and textile manufacturers in the country who export to Western Europe and the US.


Commenting on the new partnership, Peter Thong, MD of Alphamatic Systems said:

"After some intensive research, we identified XeBusiness as our ideal product partner for this region in the textile vertical market, given the excellent functionality of their specialist applications software coupled with ease of implementation and support. XeBusiness were also very flexible in agreeing a competitive local market pricing structure. We look to achieving substantial market share in this important industry sector."


David Cullis, MD of XeBusiness commented:

"I visited Malaysia in August to meet the Alphamatic team and to research market opportunities for our IT products. I was extremely impressed with Alphamatic's enthusiasm and capabilities. I am confident they will rapidly make their presence felt in the local textile sector."
