SAN FRANCISCO--Sept. 27, 2005--WSN Systems Corporation, a leader in technology products and services for the wine industry, today announced a significant upgrade in its web-based FORT System e-commerce platform. The system now offers a full management suite for wineries, retailers, and other marketing companies.
The FORT System enables wineries and wine retailers to market their products on the Internet by combining all the functionality required for an online offering of wine and other merchandise. The turn-key FORT System includes compliance management, inventory, online content, wine clubs, email campaign management, order fulfillment, and many other features, including access to major marketing channels.

"The FORT System combines on a single platform all the tools that wine sellers need to manage their ecommerce and Direct-to-Consumer business," notes Scott Liebman, CEO of WSN. "The new features we are announcing today will ensure that the FORT System remains the best choice for an e-commerce platform in the wine industry."
WSN launched the first phase of the FORT System in 1999 to meet the specific needs of the wine industry, which were not met by existing "off the shelf" packages. Since its launch, WSN has systematically phased in additional functionality, including advanced shipping and fulfillment tools, wholesaler access, and more powerful promotional features. The latest enhancements promise to promote further growth in the client base.
