Exclusive distribution deal brings retail-hardened solution to the UK

OXFORDSHIRE, 7th April, 2010 - Box Technologies, a leading technology and service provider, announced today that it has signed an exclusive distribution agreement with Toshiba TEC. Under the agreement, Box Technologies will manage deployment of the Toshiba WILLPOS B10 Point-of Sale (POS) terminal in the UK, in addition to the exclusive service and repair of the product.

Ideal for most retail environments the WILLPOS B10 has an ultra-small footprint designed to be set either in horizontal or vertical position. The WILLPOS B10 is also a perfect match for hospitality outlets.

The WILLPOS B10 is packed with a complete set of retail-hardened features that make it easy to use, powerful, compatible and secure. Designed for maximum return on the shop floor, the WILLPOS B10 is pre-configured to operate in harsh retail environments and provides LAN connectivity to both legacy infrastructure and the newest POS peripherals. The WILLPOS B10 offers an attractive dual-screen option as well as multiple powered interfaces whilst delivering low power consumption.

Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) calculations estimate that only 20 percent of the lifecycle cost is spent on hardware and software - the remaining expenditures allocated to usage, maintenance and admin costs. Smart retailers today look at POS products that are able to lower the TCO during the entire product lifecycle - hereby ensuring the best possible return on investment. POS systems designed by Toshiba TEC require very little maintenance and are built for long-haul 24/7 operations.

“Toshiba TEC has led the retail industry for many years with the continual release of innovative technology”, said Stuart Walker, Managing Director, Box Technologies. “This new generation of POS system is set to fundamentally transform the way information is managed as a strategic asset within a business. Toshiba TEC is one of the only companies that continues to manufacture all of the components in its products and, as a result, is able to provide the assurance of longevity in its build quality. Along with our unique approach to total system care, from equipment specification to service maintenance, Box Technologies is the perfect partner to maximise the benefits of a business and a healthy POS solution.”
