SAN DIEGO, October 27, 2003 ­ Iomega Corporation (NYSE: IOM), a global leader in data storage, today announced that it has received ISO 9001:2000 certification for its operations in the U.S., Canada, and Latin America.

The ISO 9001:2000 quality management certification means that a company meets the required standard in the processes it uses to accomplish its work and deliver goods or services.

“Iomega is delighted to receive ISO 9001:2000 certification, a standard that is recognized and respected worldwide, and the employees of Iomega are more committed than ever to continuing excellence in our quality management processes,” said Wayne Miller, vice president of operations and ISO management representative, Iomega Corporation.
