Press Release Summary: Arbonne Cosmetics' Happy with WCS for New Canadian
Distribution Center

Press Release Body: "Due to our remarkably strong relationship QC Software, we are
delighted to work with these great warehouse control professionals to launch our
Canadian Distribution Center. It will allow us to continue providing the best
possible product delivery to our 1.3 million consultants worldwide.\" according
Richard Estalella, who is heading up the Arbonne Canadian Distribution Center
project.

QC Software is the leading provider of Tier 1 warehouse control systems to the
warehousing and distribution industries. Since 1996, QC Software, utilizing state
of the art technology combined with extensive research, development, and rigorous
testing, has developed the QC Enterprise suite of products. Designed to be modular
in nature, easily configurable, and platform independent, this highly scalable
solution satisfies the needs of any size warehouse.


Since 1980, the vision to provide skin care products unparalleled in quality and
effectiveness developed in Switzerland more than 25 years ago when entrepreneur,
Petter Mørck, together with a group of leading bio-chemists, biologists and
herbalists, founded Arbonne. These products, based on natural, botanical principles,
are now shared throughout the world through Arbonne\'s network of Independent
Consultants. Building on these same founding principles, Arbonne\'s product line has
since grown to include both inner and outer health and beauty products that are
pure, safe, and beneficial.

Based on similar principles that propelled the success of our skin care products,
Arbonne expanded into total body care with Arbonne Bio-Nutria. Developed for every
stage of life, these nutrition, weight management, fitness, life enhancement and
remedy products are convenient, safe and backed by the latest scientific research.
The company's growth includes a new distribution center near Calgary in Canada.

QC Software's VP, Jerry List noted "QC Software has a strong and long-standing
relationship with Arbonne and has identified the trends and patterns that make it
best suited to our warehouse control system. We are proud that the new Canadian
Distribution Center will continue to gain the same efficiencies achieved in the
United States Arbonne distribution centers."
From systems currently used to manage the enterprise to technologies used for order
picking, the whitepaper identifies core issues about the efficacy of warehouse
control systems. Current shipping methods and types of automated material handling
equipment further assist in clarification of WCS opportunities. The ability to look
at near future (next six months) growth and current use of a WMS (warehouse
management system) also provide a level of technology clarity.
Dropped connections and communication with host systems help to examine if there is
a weak link in the current system; whereas volume of orders per day and industry
sector shipping urgency also is assessed.

Warehouse control systems must address numerous challenges from multiple angles and
perspectives, but if these are met they can produce benefits including a greater
return on assets, increased operational capacity, reduced labor costs, increased
inventory turns, an increase in picking and shipping accuracy, shorter process cycle
times and improved customer satisfaction.
