CPI has rebranded its vending business as Crane Convenience, to reaffirm market leadership and shape the future of convenience services
For decades, CPI’s vending business, through heritage brands including Mars Electronics International, Conlux, CashCode, Money Controls, Dixie-Narco, National Vendors and Crane Merchandising Systems, has been synonymous with vending excellence. These comprehensive solutions, encompassing highly engineered vending and coffee machines, payment technology, and software, work together seamlessly and have made CPI a trusted partner for operators worldwide.
The new Crane Convenience identity reflects this history while signaling a bold vision to drive the future of unattended retail. It underscores the business’ core belief: vending works best when systems are designed holistically, delivering simplicity, reliability, and growth for operators.
‘This evolution is not about changing who we are,’ said Matt Volinsky, VPGM of Crane Convenience, CPI, ‘it’s about reinforcing what we’ve always stood for to the market: quality and reliability, integrated solutions and operator partnerships in a way that is clear, modern, and aligned with the future of convenience services. Today, the industry is evolving beyond traditional vending toward convenience services, a shift championed by leading industry associations and driven by consumer demand for speed, flexibility, and integrated experiences. The Crane Convenience name reflects this transformation, signalling our future ambitions and reinforcing our commitment to solutions that simplify operations and enhance consumer engagement.’
As part of this rebrand, Crane Convenience will is launching a new website designed to make it easier for operators to explore solutions, access resources and connect with their team. CPI will continue to operate as the parent company, delivering integrated solutions across payment and retail technologies.
