A5COM and RMNI rolls out another digital signage at Cebu port
Cebu City, Philippines - With the success of its initial digital signage deployment in Ayala
Center Cebu, the Philippine's most popular shopping destination in the
southern hemisphere, A5COM Inc. and Rich Media Network Inc (RMNI) have
again embarked on another installation this time on a public
space - the Cebu port.
The port of Cebu is the Philippines major leg in the transport chain with
passenger traffic coming from central Philippines to the rest of the archipelago.
A5COM President Francis Dy who also represents RMNI says that "the new
rollout is definitely a boost to our existing [installation] inventories
that will also widen the exposure of our advertisers to non-mall markets."
The digital signage setup initially consists of two ieHIP® Digital Signage clients
located inside the waiting terminal for Bohol-destined ferries over a 32"
LCD digital display and another installation to follow inside Supercat
Terminal where passengers bound for eastern Visayas normally congregate. All of
the stations will be managed by A5COM using its ieHIP® Digital Signage Server.
Passenger traffic at Cebu's baseport averages at 1 million per month or
30,000 passengers daily according to the Cebu Port Authority.
Aside passengers, visitors also flood the port to meet or fetch
outgoing or arriving passengers "which translate to more
eyeballs for our digital signage." adds Dy.
A5TEK President Ted Lee says that the port rollout in Cebu “only proves
that the digital signage market in the Philippines is
gaining a good momentum.”
Lee also revealed that part of A5TEK's strategy in the Philippines
is to encourage existing consortium to invest in "key installation
points" to establish their market lead, sell advertising
inventories fast and recover investments quickly.
A5TEK's Philippine affiliate A5COM early this year formed a
consortium with Rich-Media Network Inc to pursue a nationwide rollout
of A5TEK's ieHIP® Digital Signage suite through opening up of different
digital signage networks in retail and public spaces.
Another anticipated digital signage deployment will be at the
Mactan Cebu International Airport which is said to a series of
digital signage displays at the check-in counters.
