Reflecting recession in Information Technology Industry (IIT) business of personal computer is suffering from reduction in prices, while increase in quantitative shipment has leveled off. Fujitsu registered red ink figures of ¥55.4 billion for business of April-June period, but it say that personal computer business registered black ink figure. The reason why Fujitsu was able to register black ink figure for April-June period is that Fujitsu improved products delivery system and not improvement in assembling plant. Before April, Fujitsu were operating 5 warehouses at 5 big cities. (30,000m{sup}2) At the end of April, Fujitsu stopped operation of these warehouses, and has begun direct delivery of personal computes to retailers shop from its two plants at Shimane Prefecture and Fukushima Prefecture. With this measures, products holding time at warehouse was decreased from 6 days to 3 days. This contributed to black ink figures. Margin against sales for personal computer is now 2.2% so distance to break even is at very short.
