AIRPORT CITY, Israel, Sept. 6, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- My Size, Inc. (the "Company" or "My Size") (NASDAQ: MYSZ) (TASE: MYSZ), the developer and creator of smartphone measurement applications, announced today it has entered into agreement with Katz Corporation ("Katz"), one of the largest package delivery companies in Israel, to provide its BoxSizeID™ mobile measurement technology for improved operational efficiency and to reduce operating expenses. The commercial contract follows a successful seven-month pilot program that resulted in an estimated $1 million annualized incremental revenue to the customer, a result of BoxSIzeID's ability to optimize packaging sizes used to ship Katz's packages throughout the world.

The success of the pilot program, which we estimated to increase our annual revenue by approximately $1 million, showcased the power of the technology and why we needed to integrate it throughout our Company,” Dror Katz, CEO, Katz Corporation.

Katz will install BoxSizeID on to its mobile devices for use by its more than 550 employees in seven centers across Israel, measuring more than five million packages annually. Katz will utilize BoxSizeID to provide real-time logistics data on package volumes and transportation, enabling the company to improve cartonization and manifesting, while reducing operating costs and increasing revenues.

"We are pleased to enter in to this agreement with My Size and to implement BoxSizeID fully throughout our logistics center. The success of the pilot program, which we estimated to increase our annual revenue by approximately $1 million, showcased the power of the technology and why we needed to integrate it throughout our Company," said Dror Katz, CEO, Katz Corporation. "It is crucial to our business that our systems not only run accurately, but efficiently as well. BoxSizeID enables us to identify areas where our systems could improve, while also empowering our employees to work quickly and more confidently. We look forward to continuing our partnership and realizing the benefits that BoxSizeID provides."

BoxSizeID streamlines delivery management through accurate parcel measurement and cost calculation, real time dimensional weight (DIM) details for improved logistics, and integration with enterprise resource planning (ERP) systems through barcode scan, image capture, and geo-location tagging. A consumer can utilize BoxSizeID to measure the volume of a package they intend to mail, and then receive a price quote and schedule a pick-up.

"We are excited to be selected by Katz Corporation, one of the preeminent shipping companies in Israel, to integrate BoxSizeID and enable a more efficient process throughout their logistics center. Billing errors due to inefficiencies in measurement are costly, as is lost space in trucks and shipping containers that may not have been allocated correctly due to a lack of accurate sizing information," said My Size CEO, Ronen Luzon. "This agreement, following a successful pilot program, serves as validation of the BoxSizeID technology and its ability to remove the difficulties out of package measurement while increasing efficiency within the parcel delivery value chain. We look forward to continuing our work with Katz, and to showcasing the value of BoxSizeID to the growing parcel delivery industry."

For couriers, the benefits are enhanced. They receive the customer's order and already know the size of the package they are picking up, enabling them to assign pick up of the package to the appropriate truck. In the courier's logistics center, the packages are scanned and measured, with that data being uploaded to the company's ERP to ensure the customer's manifest matches what was actually sent.

A report by Accenture estimates the express parcel market will reach approximately $343 billion by 2020, driven by continued year-over-year growth in e-commerce. The same report also states that many parcel firms have sought to acquire leading technologies and companies in an effort to widen the scope of their business, with improvements in Logistics and Transportation, and Parcels and Express leading the way. Billing errors are costing freight companies additional costs, while inaccurate measurements lead to a 20% sub-utilization of warehouse space due to inefficient slotting. This creates a significant market opportunity for My Size and its BoxSizeID technology within the shipping/parcel space to help shipping/parcel agencies reduce costs and work more efficiently.
