ALON USA installs NCR RealPOS™ terminals and RealScan™ bar-code scanners with Retalix StorePoint Software North America’s Largest 7-Eleven Licensee Turns to NCR and Retalix for POS Solution NCR Corporation (NYSE: NCR) and Retalix Ltd. (Nasdaq: RTLX) today announced that ALON USA is installing point-of-sale (POS) systems featuring NCR technology running Retalix software solutions. The systems are being deployed at all of ALON’s 7-Eleven locations, operated by the company’s Southwest Convenience Stores retail marketing division. With 168 stores in West Texas and New Mexico, ALON is the largest 7-Eleven licensee in North America. ALON selected NCR RealPOS™ 70 workstations, NCR RealScan™ 92 bar-code scanners and NCR high-speed thermal receipt printers. ALON and NCR have also signed a three-year store technology maintenance contract. ALON’s POS initiative includes StorePoint software from Retalix, a Gold level member of the NCR RealPartner program. The Retalix StorePoint suite of software includes integrated Point of Sale, Back Office, Fuel and Home Office/PriceBook management. “The high transaction volume in our stores calls for durable, easy-to-service POS technology designed for maximum availability,” said ALON Director of Marketing Technologies Avsha Klachuk. “We found that NCR’s products exceeded our criteria, which included lifecycle and total-cost-of-ownership considerations. Further, with the Retalix StorePoint software solution, we are able to meet our current operating requirements for both store and fuel retailing while working closely with their development team to build new and innovative functionality for the future.” The rollout of the NCR/Retalix solution is past the halfway milestone and is scheduled for completion by March 2005. ALON also plans to make the hardware and software package available as a turnkey solution to more than 1,200 FINA branded fuel outlets that the company supplies through its distributor and direct retail network. “ALON is committed to offering the best value to its customers, and NCR is committed to helping companies like ALON focus on the activities that are most important to their business success,” said Nelson Gomez, vice president of solution sales for NCR. “That’s why we focus on engineering rugged, reliable POS solutions that are easy to install and maintain, provide speedier customer service at the checkout and improve operational efficiency.” “We are very pleased to provide solutions which support ALON’s vision, and to deliver value-added retail technologies that allow them to compete at the highest level possible,” said Barry Shaked, president and chief executive officer of Retalix Ltd. “Our StorePoint solution enables ALON to provide creative merchandising and product sales, as well as create maximum efficiencies throughout its supply chain.
