Overview

Altierre, a fast growing company in Silicon valley, California, is revolutionizing the world of
price and signage changes in retail and aims to bring the stores into the Digital Age.  Current
processes are increasingly unable to keep up with the explosion of information, required to
serve the diverse needs of retailers and consumers.

Since its establishment in 2003, Altierre has been working closely with several leading retail
chains in the United States.  Its RF based platform provides many consumer benefits
improving both revenues and margins. Its initial offering, ESL (Electronic Shelf Labels), will
automate the price and information dissemination process in stores.

The market opportunity for Altierre’s solutions exceeds tens of billions of dollars in the United
States alone. Addressing a major pain point within the $3 Trillion US retail industry, Altierre
is attacking the “next big thing”.
