With New Distributors In Australia And The United Kingdom
Two major distributors set to further improve Wasp's reach to small business owners

PLANO, Texas - Sept. 25, 2007 - Wasp Barcode Technologies has inked agreements with leading distributors in Australia and the United Kingdom, growing the company's visibility among small business owners around the world.

"These two new distributors will put additional muscle behind our efforts to continue the strong international growth Wasp has seen over the past year," said Steve Coffman, president of Wasp Barcode Technologies. "We're particularly excited about creating relationships with such powerful players in their respective countries, where each of these companies has high levels of credibility, experience and trust."

In Australia, Wasp has teamed up with Ingram Micro, the country's largest IT distributor. By partnering with Ingram, Wasp will benefit from the company's strong distribution network and extensive local presence. This includes the ability to serve value-added resellers and other resellers that specifically serve small businesses.

"We are seeing increased demand from business owners who are looking for effective, affordable productivity solutions," said Linda Pifat, business manager for Ingram Micro Pty. Ltd. "By offering Wasp's products, Ingram Micro will provide Australian small businesses with easy-to-use barcoding solutions that can change their companies for the better."

In the United Kingdom, Wasp has added Midwich Limited to its stable of distributors. Midwich, which provides broad-based distribution of IT products, will expand Wasp's reach amongst value-added resellers especially those that serve small and mid-sized businesses.

"With more than a quarter-century of experience providing solutions to the IT marketplace, we have a deep understanding of the current technology needs of small and mid-sized businesses," said Alex Ward, commercial director for Midwich. "We see Wasp's products as an ideal fit for many of these companies, as well as the value-added resellers who service them."
