"Krispy Kreme, of Winston-Salem, North Carolina, has selected Intermec Technologies Corp.’s 700 Series Color mobile computers to streamline its distribution process. Krispy Kreme has doubled its number of retail locations since 2001 and currently is opening its first stores outside North America. Intermec 740 Color mobile computers and PW40 workboard printers already are at work on more than 140 delivery routes, and the company expects to have more than 500 Intermec mobile computers in operation when deployment to all company-owned stores, including Canadian and U.K. locations, is completed in 2004. “We took advantage of the Pocket PC operating system to simplify the integration of the applications we developed to run on the 700 Series with Krispy Kreme’s back-office systems. We could focus on creating applications to make delivery, customer service and reconciliation operations easier because we could count on the mobile and legacy systems to work together,” said Velocitor President Rich Pacella."
