SAN JOSE, Calif., Sept. 25, 2014 /PRNewswire/ -- SLI Systems (NZX.SLI) today officially launches a new logo and branding that illustrates its commitment to meeting the expanding needs of e-commerce retailers around the world.    

SLI Systems Chief Marketing Officer Tim Callan, who led SLI's brand redevelopment, says: "The new logo embodies SLI Systems' mission to accelerate e-commerce by connecting shoppers with the products they are most likely to buy.

The color palate considers the nuances of cultures across the five continents where SLI operates."

SLI CEO Shaun Ryan says, "E-commerce retailers around the world face a period of unbridled opportunity. In the U.S. alone e-commerce sales are forecast to grow to US$414 billion in 2018 from US$294 billion this year¹, and global e-commerce sales are to hit $1.5 trillion this year².

"As a result, we have a wealth of experience in delivering best practices in e-commerce that increase conversion rates, secure brand loyalty and accelerate sales. The new logo underscores these strengths as it references our unrivalled solution set, our comprehensive engineering and development resources and our global reach. We believe it will enhance our already-strong brand recognition and standing among the world's leading e-commerce operators."
