A fully integrated, streamlined e-commerce site distinguishes Intellinet client, Graham-Field, from the competition
Atlanta, GA (May 22, 2008) - Atlanta-based GF Health Products, Inc., a leading manufacturer and distributor of healthcare products, announced today that it has doubled its online revenue during the past year. Graham-Field's Web-based sales have topped $10 million and the site's Web traffic has increased from 15,000 hits per month to nearly 900,000 hits per month. The performance results from a fully integrated and streamlined e-commerce site, Marketplace, which sells products and manages inventory for the company's brands, which include Everest & Jennings(R), Grafco(R), John Bunn(R), Labtron(R), Lumex(R) and Lumiscope(R). "The site allows us to increase our level of customer service, drive additional sales and reduce operating costs at the same time," said Scott Lerner, Graham-Field's Director of Information Technology and E-Commerce. "We believe we have delivered the promise and value of Web-efficient business to both our parent company and our clients." In an industry still dominated by paper catalogues, Graham-Field has distinguished itself from the competition with the help of Intellinet, an Atlanta-based Microsoft partner. The results of the site have been so significant that Microsoft acknowledged Graham-Field's and Intellinet's progressive thinking and successful technology strategies in an in-depth case study published on Microsoft's corporate Web site.
