Press Release Summary: Dubai, 21 June 2006- SNS, a leading Supply Chain Services
provider, announced the successful implementation of integration interfaces between
SAP and the warehouse management system at TNT Fashion Logistics in the Netherlands.


Press Release Body: TNT Fashion Logistics is the LSP for FILA Europe and their two
hundred thousand square meter warehouse facility in Rosendaal acts primarily as a
Distribution Centre and caters all their outlets in the European Union. With a
warehouse of this size and a market that covers a continent, the integration between
the ERP and WM was critical.

Four interfaces were required:
1. PO/Returns Download
2. Pick Ticket Download
3. Stock Movements Upload
4. Invoice Upload.

A successful synergy between systems is essential to such a large size operation as
there is little room for interface delays or errors. SNS has a long expertise in
merging different systems. The tool used to implement this integration was Boomi, a
highly user friendly integration tool.

"With the size of our warehouse and the daily volumes in and out, it was important
for us to develop reliable interfaces between our ERP and Warehouse Management
System" declared Mr. Happy Weed, IT Manager at TNT Fashion Logistics in Holland.
"Because of previous experiences with SNS' technical consultants, we knew that they
were the team to work with. The speed of development and the high quality coding
were mission critical and SNS consultants lived up to their tasks and more".

"The fashion industry is one of the most complicated industries when it comes to
supply chain management" said Mario Ghosn, General Manager of SNS. "And with the
size of the Distribution Centre in Rosendaal, the challenge was even greater. Our
technical consultants are experts in the integration tools but also in understanding
customer requirements and translating them into efficient and reliable code."
