LOCAL COMPANY RECOGNIZED FOR FULFILLMENT EXCELLENCE

Alexandria, VA, September 8, 2007 - Cincinnati, Ohio - based mailing and fulfillment company, Marketing Support Services, Inc., (MSS) - has recently been recognized as one of the first fulfillment service providers in the country to receive fulfillment accreditation by the Alexandria, Virginia-based national trade association, Mailing & Fulfillment Service Association (MFSA).

Greg Fischer, owner and president of MSS states, "This fulfillment accreditation reinforces MSS's commitment to quality throughout our entire operation. It sets us apart from our competitors and lets our clients and prospects know that we truly understand the fulfillment process and have applied these very high standards into our daily applications."

MFSA recently unveiled the industry's first fulfillment accreditation program after years of research and development. The purpose behind this program is to enable fulfillment operators to be recognized for their documented commitment to fulfillment, to help other fulfillment operators to improve their operations, and to show customers which companies are the "cream of the crop." Accredited companies must complete a comprehensive application seeking documentation in 11 critical general operational areas and be subject to an audit of their operations in 14 technical and operational areas such as receiving, and put-away, order picking, order packing, hand assembly, returns, reporting, etc. Overall the accreditation program has 168 criteria to examine. Applicants must pass all the required elements (55) and 75% of the supplemental elements (113).

Marketing Support Services, Inc. (MSS) was founded in 1987. Since then the company has grown to 60 employees and operates in a 100,000 square foot facility. The company's website is www.truefulfillment.com.
