Gelson's Market, a high end, upscale supermarket chain operating 18 stores in the California area has selected DIGI.
A Gelson's Market store, located in Irvine, California "Gelson's Market so far installed 100 SM-90 and SM-720 counter scale printers with eight AW-4600 Wrappers. They are all linked in wireless", stated
Gelson's selected the DIGI SM-720 scale and the AW-4600AT wrapper for all scheduled store remodels. The equipment is being installed in the first 4 remodels as this article is being written.
Digi Systems provides the EPOS market with specialist solutions for Convenience Stores, Fuel & Forecourt, Butchers, Symbol Groups and General Retail sectors. In addition DigiPOS Head office Software allows retailers to connect and control multiple locations from a central HQ in a real-time environment.
Gelson's selected DIGI equipment due to the innovative features and reliable operation of the AW-4600 AT and the SM-720 because of responsive, high quality local service provided by Digi. Of particular interest to Gelson's was DIGI Super Stretch Technology, which allows the AW-4600 AT to wrap the widest range of trays possible, with one roll of film, resulting in 20% less film used when compared to other competitive models. All equipment will be connected to the store and corporate network for PLU file maintenance using the DIGI wireless system.

DIGI wins a large contract from the Norwegian Postal Service for PS-130 Postal Scales
Petter Klipper (left), and the postal operator Ms. Therese Nord who works at the Mix Carte, where she operates a Postal shop-in-shop service. She is very happy working with the new postal scale solution from DIGI.
DIGI and a counter manufacturer worked together and made a special version of the DIGI PS-130 to be used for point of sale in post offices throughout Norway.
The versatile DIGI PS-130 is made to handle everything from letters of only a few grams to large cartons up to 35kg. The scale is placed in a hole in the counter with mounted rollers, which eases the operator's handling of packages.
Adhering to regulations, the scale has both customer and operator displays. Since the customer display is placed on a separate stand, it is very easy for the customer to read the weight.
The Norwegian Postal Service made their choice of scales and supplier based on price, functionality, service and support.
Digi has already started the delivery of the initial quantity of 400 units of PS-130.
