Associated Global Systems, New Hyde Park, NY (May '02) - Associated Global Systems, a full service transportation and logistics provider, is pleased to announce the expansion of its Retail Merchandising Services now available in every zip code in the United States.

AGS Retail Merchandising is a unique service. Working as part of our customers' merchandising team, AGS' merchandise managers and fixture installers set up displays, deliver merchandise, stock products on racks and shelves, take inventory and restock or refurbish displays as needed. AGS also provides over 400 warehousing depots nationwide so that merchandise or installation materials are close at hand when needed.

AGS has a network of contractors throughout the country. "Their expertise and versatility are the key to the success of our business", says John Elder, Director of AGS' Retail Merchandising Services. He continues, "And the customer has the ability to check via the web the status of a particular function from start to finish." All Retail Merchandising Services programs are customized based on the retailers needs.

AGS Retail Merchandising contractors are available for on-site "train the trainer" sessions enabling the contractor to work with in-store retail employees to rework displays, explain the use of point-of-purchase displays, and refurbish existing cases.

"We believe that we offer a comprehensive, cost-effective solution for customers, who in the past may have used their sales teams to handle installations, when their time is better spent selling", said Norman Freeman, President of Associated Global Systems.

Founded in 1958, Associated Global Systems is a privately held company providing a full range of transportation, logistics and supply chain management services worldwide. It has 400+ offices in North America, and provides air, ocean and ground services to, from and within 205 countries.
