Through our related services and partnerships, WSN offers clients much more than a simple technology platform. In this sense we are more than a technology company; we also offer clients access to thousands of potential new customers through our 800wine program, and three-tier compliant fulfillment services through WorldShipNet.

800wine.com In December 1999, WSN launched 800wine.com, an online wine-gifting portal. Since its launch, this business has grown into an international service with over 300 member retail shops and a host of major marketing partners including American Express.

Through our vast network of partners, we offer a turnkey drop-ship program of several product lines that are difficult and expensive to inventory and ship. Two examples are Riedel crystal and gourmet gift baskets. With this program, any company wishing to sell gift baskets or Riedel crystal can offer them immediately on their own website at a competitive retail price, while never having to worry about taking a single item into inventory or shipping a single order. WSN handles the entire process, from order routing to fulfillment to tracking number reporting.

WorldShipNet WorldShipNet is an alliance of companies which together have over 50 years of experience in the wine industry. WorldShipNet is a comprehensive logistics service utilizing WSN technology, and an exclusive fulfillment network of key players in each tier of the wine industry--producers, wholesalers, and retailers.

There is a complex web of issues that must be addressed in shipping wine across state lines, such as label registration, price posting, excise and sales tax, management of cash flow between each party, and general logistics. WorldShipNet handles all of these details, from "pick and pack" to the "last mile" delivery to the consumer, enabling the winery to focus on its core business of making and selling wine. We require the winery to provide us with the order information only; we handle the entire process from there.

WorldShipNet's efficient, direct-to-consumer wine delivery system enables producers and marketing companies to dramatically increase gross profits.

	Producers effectively increase their gross profits by as much as 300% while doubling the market they can ship to directly.
	Wholesalers and Retailers significantly increase their income without making investments in inventory, trucks or warehouse equipment, or incurring sales and marketing costs to support this incremental revenue.
	Consumers have access to premium products direct from the producer which are very often not distributed in local wine shops.
