“Zelerate, Inc., the leading provider of accelerated e-commerce
solutions, today announced that its Zelerate AllCommerce
application will be used to run the commercial operations of
ThinkGeek, the OSDN online retailing site that has earned cult
popularity with programmers, IT professionals and other members of
the open source community.”
“ThinkGeek chose Zelerate AllCommerce as its online retailing
solution last year because of its ability to run order management
and fulfillment operations. To support ThinkGeek’s recent sales
growth, Zelerate is working to increase the functionality of its
software in statistical analysis, customer service and accounting
system integration. ThinkGeek expects its new Zelerate e-commerce
system to be ready in the first quarter of 2001.”
“ThinkGeek has built a solid online business by identifying,
understanding and catering to the needs of an independent-minded
audience,” said Bonnie Crater, president and CEO of Zelerate, Inc.
“ThinkGeek offers goods in a lighthearted way that the open source
community appreciates, while also operating an effective business
venture. We look forward to helping to grow ThinkGeek’s
business.”
