CommerceHub Launches Drop-Ship Master 4.0, Further defining the standard in drop-ship fulfillment management

New Applications Provide both Merchants and Suppliers with Unprecedented Control of Their Drop-Ship Operations

ALBANY, N.Y., October 6, 2004 – CommerceHub, the standard in drop-ship commerce for multi-channel merchants, today announced the availability of Drop-Ship Master 4.0. This new and revolutionary application suite features functionality that allows CommerceHub’s rapidly growing network of merchants and suppliers to gain unprecedented control over their drop-ship fulfillment operations and trading partner relationships.

CommerceHub’s Drop-Ship Master 4.0 is a comprehensive suite of applications that enables merchants to drop-ship products directly from suppliers to customers while maintaining the same degree of control, customer service, fulfillment performance, and brand management as if they actually shipped the products out of their own warehouses. By implementing the CommerceHub platform and application suite, a merchant can rapidly integrate new suppliers and expand product offerings without taking on inventory risk or the costs and challenges associated with integrating disparate trading partners.

"We worked directly with our customers and other industry leaders to understand their desires in a next-generation application set for managing drop-ship fulfillment," said Frank Poore, Founder and CEO of CommerceHub. "As a result, we are proud to announce the release of Drop-Ship Master 4.0, a complete re-engineering of our industry-leading platform that provides significant new functionality, scalability and flexibility for our rapidly growing client base."

"We are currently using the application in production and I can say that Drop-Ship Master 4 is a major advancement in drop-ship management," says Steve Hamlin, Vice President of Operations for QVC.com. "CommerceHub continues to solidify its leadership position in the market as it continues to define the standard for drop-ship fulfillment. The new system provides us with unrivaled control, visibility and intelligence. I’m confident that during this holiday season it will help us handle larger drop-ship volumes with fewer customer service problems than ever before."

"We’re very excited about the release of Drop-Ship Master 4.0," says Richard Jones, Chief Technology Officer of CommerceHub. "Our team, in conjunction with our customers and partners, worked extremely hard to bring this monumental advancement to market. With this release, CommerceHub has further solidified our leadership position in the market."

With Drop-Ship Master 4.0, CommerceHub trading partners are offered a powerful set of features that provide visibility, intelligence, efficiency and control over their drop-ship fulfillment networks:

· Visibility: provides an integrated, bi-directional view of order flow that includes a common dashboard, customizable searches and real-time visibility to exceptions in the fulfillment process.
