Global Expansion

Subtitle: 16 new sales partners already opt for Skeye Channel in 2011

Hannover / Germany, 11/10/2011. (euro adhoc) - In the current
business year 2011, as many as 16 new sales partners have already
signed up for Skeye mobile terminals from Hoeft & Wessel. With a
total of 43 partners at present, the international extension of
business activities will be substantially reinforced. The regional
focus is on Europe. In the course of fiscal 2011, the share of sales
revenues accounted for by the partner business in the Skeye division
of Hoeft & Wessel AG is set to rise by well over one third.

The Skeye partners stand to benefit from an extensive range of
services within a three-stage programme. Differentiated by platinum,
gold and silver partnerships, the Channel programme ranges from
technical training all the way through to targeted use of the highly
qualified "Skeye Partner Support Centre". In addition to customised,
speedy support, the Partner Support Centre provides partners with a
wide spectrum of individually tailored services.

To Peter Siggaard-Andersen, Head of the Skeye Global Channel at Hoeft
& Wessel AG, the positive trend has also emerged thanks to the
special partner strategy: "Our partners can rely on having exclusive
distributorship of our systems for specific projects. The exclusivity
of a Skeye solution protects the investments of our partners in the
individual markets in which they operate. Another positive factor is
that our product portfolio serves to extend and augment the offerings
of our partners very well and enables them to secure fresh sources of
sales revenues."

In extending its international business activities for its mobile
solutions, Hoeft & Wessel relies on close collaboration with its
partner companies. As the technology leader in the field of IT
hardware and software for ticketing, parking and mobile solutions in
Germany and the United Kingdom, Hoeft & Wessel proactively integrates
its co-operation partners into its business model. Increasingly
complex IT structures and work procedures in the retail, logistics
and field service segments call for close integration of all system
components. In close co-operation with its partners and thanks to
their special expertise, Hoeft & Wessel is able to offer its
customers particularly well tailored mobile solutions.
