 Retail Systems, Inc. achieved its second Top 5 ranking in as many years in the Leaderboard 2002 survey published in December, 2002. The Leaderboard is an annual supplement to RIS News that surveys the top 100 specialty retailers as listed by STORES magazine and computes an overall score for retail software vendors based on a combination of retail concentration, satisfaction among retail customers, and company revenue and recognition.

While CRS remains focused on enhancing store operations capabilities, the company has expanded its retail concentration recently with the acquisition of Found, Inc. in 2002 and recent additions to its Encore Retail Suite(TM) and Focus(TM) suite applications. Contributing greatly to the company's strong overall ranking were first place rankings in the Return on Investment, Quality of Support, and Quality of Service categories, as well as a number three ranking in the Strategic Value category.

"At CRS, we live our motto 'Technology in the Service of People' everyday," said Kathy Frommer, chief executive officer of CRS Retail Systems. "We strive to provide the best products with the best service and support for the people in retail we work with and to see those efforts reflected in the Leaderboard is an honor and a nice acknowledgement of our hard work."

Also announced today, CRS Retail Systems will be showcasing its Encore Retail Suite, Found ICaM(TM), and Focus(TM) suite at the 2003 NRF NRF National Retail Federation
