Slide 8 of 16
Notes:
You probably think barcoding is a mature segment and retail (our largest vertical market) is already heavily penetrated. Actually, Symbol is positioned beyond retail, which remains strong in its own right... 95 of top 100 worldwide retailers are our customers.
The fixed-position POS market is heavily penetrated, but mobility with data management is changing the industrial landscape and creating new opportunities in retail and other markets: New in-store mobile and wireless applications, warehousing and the logistics pipeline, and manufacturing solutions have become growth drivers of our retail business.
Symbol customers actually represent a broad cross-section of the commercial landscape. Everyone is trying to improve productivity and grow revenues... Symbol’s technology and systems are a perfect match to their mobile workforces.
