Soriana signs a new contract with Pricer for additional 150 stores

Mexico's second largest retailer,
Soriana (http://www1.soriana.com/default.asp), has signed an additional
contract for the installation of 150 stores with Pricer electronic shelf
labels to be delivered during 2011 and 2012. The value of the contract
is estimated at SEK 50M. Installations have started and more than half
of the project is expected to be completed this year.

“We are very proud of signing the new deal with Soriana”, says Fredrik
Berglund, CEO of Pricer. “We were given the opportunity at the end of
2009 to install our solution in the first stores after Soriana tried
another vendor, and the additional new contract is proof of the level of
satisfaction and trust the customer has with Pricer.”

Soriana has already installed Pricer's solution in about 100 stores and
is using ESL both to ensure price integrity and to improve the stores'
daily operations and procedures. The scalability of the Pricer ESL
solution enables the group to install the system in various store
formats, from convenience stores to hypermarkets.
