Paragon Gets Asian Distribution

Westlake Village, Calif.-based software provider Paragon Business Systems has inked a deal with Japanese distributor Scrum Ltd. to sell and market Paragon’s apparel industry solutions in Asia.

Scrum has offices in 13 Japanese cities and is considered a major technology player in the apparel and textile industry of the Far East, said Paragon’s Peter Jennings, who added that the new partnership should give Paragon a foothold in the Asian market with local time zone expertise and support. Paragon’s systems are translated into Japanese for ease of use and implementation. —Robert McAllister
