Leading Global Snack Manufacturer to Implement CDC Software`s CDC Factory Solution to Help Meet Increased Demand for Snacks as Part of Trend in the Global Recession

ATLANTA & HONG KONG--(Business Wire)--
CDC Software, a wholly-owned subsidiary of CDC Corporation (NASDAQ: CHINA) and a
provider of industry-specific enterprise software applications and business
services, announced today that Intersnack, a leading global snack manufacturer,
is expected to implement CDC Factory, a manufacturing operations management and
enterprise manufacturing intelligence solution, at its two plants in the
Netherlands to help increase capacity, improve efficiency, reduce costs and
further strengthen the company`s Lean manufacturing initiatives.

With the global recession continuing, Intersnack is finding consumers increasing
their in-home snack consumption. As a result, Intersnack expects that CDC
Factory will help them take advantage of this increased demand without making
costly additional capital expenditures.

Intersnack is expected to implement CDC Factory at its Doetinchem and
Hardinxveld plants in the Netherlands. The food manufacturer also plans to use
CDC Factory as a platform to standardize its daily work control practices, as
well as its successful Lean manufacturing practices already in place, which is
expected to further improve employee productivity with its hourly workforce. As
part of the CDC Factory Profit Audit, a CDC Software service that identifies
specific financial opportunities and improvement targets for a plant before
implementation begins, it was estimated that Intersnack could potentially
improve overall plant efficiency by approximately 10 percent annually after
completion of its implementation of CDC Factory.

Arjan Lammers, managing director of Operations of Intersnack NL, commented, "Our
immediate challenge is to meet the rising consumer demand for our in-home
products while offsetting price pressure. As a pre-packaged solution, CDC
Factory comes with real-time intelligence and built-in action and review cycles
that means our workforce is expected to be able to drive significant
improvements immediately. The 'Factory Profit Audit' undertaken by the CDC
Software team, established a very specific performance target for each site and
set a clear implementation roadmap that should enable us to begin delivering
financial benefits within about 12 weeks from project commencement. I fully
expect to realize substantial efficiency savings within months of starting the
project."
