John Woods, the European General Manager for Scan-Optics Inc, re emerging as a Pick systems company and who is based in Sunbury, Middlesex over here, commenting on Scan-Optics poor financial results which saw a second quarter net loss of $1.2m against a profit last time of $40,000 (CI No 1,237), said the company is about to enter a period of strong growth: he blames the losses on the company’s investment in its new Sabre series of multi-user computers and the lull in customer purchasing before the new products were announced; Woods says the UK operation is trading profitably and that the Pick market is set for growth within the year.
