At launch, the most popular fast-moving products have been uploaded to the shop; eventually the company's entire range of standard products will be available for purchase online. The VeroDirect site enables customers to check stock levels, which are updated in real time; they can place orders from anywhere in the world 24/7, pay using a credit card and have the goods despatched the next working day. VeroDirect enhances the already high service levels offered by Vero Technologies; in-stock service levels already exceed 98% across the company's wide range of products. With time to market a critical consideration, not only will the new service provide reliable rapid despatch but it will also enable customers to reduce their own inventories. Vero Technologies manufactures the iconic Veroboard prototyping boards, Verowire wiring pens, extender boards, terminal pins, PCB test points, solder pins and a wide range of electronic prototyping boards and breadboards for the electronics engineer. It also produces such well know brand names in the plastic enclosures sector as Veronex, IDAS, Apollo, General Purpose Box, Patina and many others. A large number of accessories such as battery holders, various designs of card guides, both general purpose and specific to the KM6 subrack system, are also available. *** Ends: body copy 244 words *** Notes to editors.
