distributors at prices that allow the Company to profit from the
sale.

IRIS Systems.

assist food brokers with the day to day management of their
business.  It controls orders and commissions and reports on
sales performance according to salesperson, product line, and
customer.  The ADVANTAGE System  also has Electronic Data
Interchange communications capability to provide
computer-to-computer transmission of sales orders, invoices,
pricing and other information with manufacturers and
distributors.  

	The RETAIN Retail Analysis and Inventory Notation System,
which includes both hardware and software elements, is designed
to assist food brokers, manufacturers' representatives and
manufacturers in obtaining and analyzing highly valued
information concerning the retail distribution of their
products.  The RETAIN System includes an optional handheld
data entry unit which is used to record product price,
distribution, and related information at a retail store.  The
RETAIN System may also be purchased as an option to the
ADVANTAGE System.
