Akro-Mils’ new mobile site, which launched in February 2012 alongside the company’s new full website, is available on mobile phones and devices at akro-mils.com. Designed and programmed with simplicity in mind, the site navigation offers four user-friendly options: a product index organized by industry and type of item, a product selection tool that sorts based on user-selected criteria, a distributor locator and complete contact information.
“Businesses of all kinds need specialized storage, organization and transport products to increase efficiencies and reduce costs — and they need the process of finding these products to be efficient, too,” HFA wrote for the contest entry. “Akro-Mils, an industry leader in materials handling solutions, hired Hitchcock Fleming & Associates to create a mobile website that would make choosing and obtaining the right solution fast and easy anytime, anywhere. The new mobile site needed to be convenient for end-users as well as distributors and catalogers serving a variety of industries… Now, no matter who visits the site, what they need is just a single click away.”
