Business Profile

Description: Portable Bytes is a privately held producer of solutions for distributors of perishable products. We produce and support handheld, networked PC, and minicomputer software to accomplish these goals. Portable Bytes' system solutions cut across virtually all industry segments. Traditional users of handheld computers have been the retailing and wholesaling segments of the grocery, pharmaceutical, and hardware industries where many efficiencies are realized through collection, storage, and forwarding of inventory and reorder information. The combination of rapid data communication and bar code reading have made these processes routine, timely, and virtually error free. The advent of microprocessor-based systems with large complements of random access memory, standard operating systems designed for portable devices, object and component-based programming techniques, Internet based communication standards, and real time, radio based interactive communications have provided these traditional users with cost-effective techniques for controlling direct store deliveries and price verification at the shelf level. Portable Bytes will continue to listen to the customer and drive our success by providing valuable solutions to customer information problems.
